Description:
WIC is a USDA funded food and nutrition education program that provides supplemental food benefits for women, infants, and children, up to five years of age. A team of nutritionists, WIC educators, lactation consultants and peer counselors provide nutrition education along with breastfeeding support and encouragement to moms and families. The Chickasaw Nation WIC program is a non-discriminatory program that provides pregnant or postpartum women, infants and children up to the age of five nutritious foods at no charge. WIC educators and nutritionists provide helpful nutrition information and counseling to moms and families. Lactation consultants and breastfeeding peer counselors are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to encourage and support breastfeeding moms through daily challenges. WIC food packages have been updated to provide families a wide variety of foods, including: infant foods, infant cereals, adult iron-fortified cereals, milk, low-fat chocolate milk, fruit or veggie juices, eggs, cheese, peanut butter, dried or canned beans, soy based beverages, tofu, fresh fruits and veggies, whole wheat bread and other whole grain options. In October 2010, the Chickasaw Nation WIC program made the change to the EBT card system. EBT makes getting WIC foods easier, more secure, and much more convenient. For more information, please do not hesitate to call your nearest Chickasaw Nation WIC office to see if you and your family qualify.
