The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in Gretna, LA, is dedicated to ensuring that low-income pregnant and postpartum women, as well as infants and children up to five years old, have access to essential nutrition. Our mission is to promote healthy food choices and support the well-being of families by providing nutrient-rich supplemental foods, comprehensive nutrition education, and invaluable resources for breastfeeding mothers. We empower caregivers with the guidance and encouragement they need while also facilitating referrals for additional health services. If you are a participant in the Louisiana Medicaid Program, Louisiana SNAP (Food Stamps), Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), or LA CHIP, you automatically qualify for WIC. We welcome caregivers of young children and do not require proof of citizenship or alien status, making it easier for families in Gretna to access the essential support they need for a healthier future.
