Women Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in La Place, LA, is dedicated to fostering healthy nutrition for low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. WIC offers a variety of essential services, including the provision of nutrient-rich supplemental foods that support growth and development, comprehensive nutrition education aimed at enhancing dietary habits, and invaluable resources for breastfeeding support. Additionally, we connect families with other vital health services through our referral program. Enrollment in Louisiana Medicaid, SNAP, TANF, LA CHIP, or LA MOMS automatically qualifies caregivers of children aged five and under for assistance. Our WIC services are flexible, occurring at various times throughout the week to accommodate families. We welcome you to reach out to learn more about how WIC can support your family’s health and nutrition needs.
