Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Shreveport, LA, is dedicated to fostering the health and well-being of low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. Our mission is to support families by providing essential nutritional assistance, which includes nutrient-rich supplemental foods that are crucial for growth and development. Through personalized nutrition education, we empower participants to make informed dietary choices and adopt healthier habits. Additionally, we offer guidance and support for breastfeeding, ensuring that mothers receive the encouragement they need. WIC also connects families with vital health services in the community. We invite individuals seeking food assistance to bring each family member applying for the program to their appointment at our clinic.
