WIC provides mothers and families with about $60 per month in nutrition benefits for each child on the program, but WIC doesn't just provide food. WIC is a network designed for mothers.
That WIC network provides your patients with something our most vulnerable populations often lack: a community of support. With WIC, your patient will find a community of nutritionists, lactation consultants, professionals and peers. The WIC community listens and shares information while providing guidance and moral support. We connect mothers while educating them and learning from them.
