Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Douglas, GA, is a vital federally-funded health and nutrition program dedicated to supporting the nutritional needs of pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, infants, and children up to five years of age, including foster children. Our mission is to empower families with low incomes, specifically those at or below 185 percent of the federal poverty level or enrolled in Medicaid, by providing essential food assistance and nutrition education to combat nutritional deficiencies. WIC offers supplemental food, nutrition assessments, breastfeeding support, health screenings, and referrals to additional health services. Participants receive special checks to purchase healthy foods from authorized vendors, along with personalized nutrition guidance to ensure better health outcomes for mothers and children. To determine eligibility, we encourage families to explore the WIC Eligibility Assessment on Georgia’s WIC website, and contact our local office for assistance in scheduling appointments and understanding the necessary documentation for application.
