About Women, Infants and Children (WIC)
The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in Morgan City, LA, is dedicated to fostering healthy nutrition and fostering well-being for low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. We provide essential supplemental foods rich in the nutrients crucial for growth and development, along with nutrition education that empowers families to cultivate better dietary habits. Our program offers valuable information and support for breastfeeding, ensuring mothers feel encouraged and informed. Additionally, WIC connects families to vital health services, making it easier to access comprehensive care. If you are enrolled in the Louisiana Medicaid Program, SNAP (Food Stamp) Program, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), LA CHIP, or LA MOMS benefits, you meet the income eligibility requirements for our program. Caregivers of children aged five and under are warmly welcome to participate in WIC, helping to ensure a healthier future for our youngest community members.
