Women, Infants & Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants & Children (WIC) Program in Westwego, LA is dedicated to fostering healthy food habits among low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and their young children from birth to five years. Committed to the well-being of families, WIC offers supplemental foods enriched with vital nutrients for growth and development, alongside comprehensive nutrition education to enhance dietary choices and health behaviors. Our program provides compassionate support and resources for breastfeeding, as well as crucial referrals to other health services. We believe that every child deserves a healthy start, and we’re here to support families in achieving that goal.
