Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Plaquemine, LA, is dedicated to fostering healthy dietary practices among low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. WIC offers vital supplemental foods rich in essential nutrients necessary for healthy growth and development, alongside comprehensive nutrition education that empowers families to make informed dietary choices. We believe in supporting mothers through expert guidance on breastfeeding, and we provide valuable referrals to additional health services, ensuring that families have access to the resources they need to thrive.
