WIC is a Nutrition and Health Education Program funded by the Ohio Department of Health via the United States Department of Agriculture. WIC services include:
  • Nutrition & Breastfeeding Education and Support
  • Supplemental foods supplying key nutrients
  • Referral to health care providers and community programs
  • Height checks, weight checks and iron testing.
The supplemental foods WIC provides promote good health for pregnant women, women who just had a baby, breastfeeding moms, infants and children up to age five years. The foods are loaded onto a WIC Nutrition Card {WNC} to redeem at participating grocers throughout the state. WIC earns money for our community vendors.
