The Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC) in Forest, MS, is dedicated to fostering healthy nutrition and food security for low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. Through our comprehensive services, we offer vital nutrition education, access to supplemental foods, and breastfeeding support, while also providing crucial referrals for health care. Our mission is to empower families to establish and maintain healthy eating habits that last a lifetime. To access WIC benefits, families are encouraged to apply in person at the local county health department or WIC clinic, with accommodations available for newborns within their first 60 days. We invite you to reach out to your local clinic for more information on the assistance we provide in ensuring better health for mothers and their young children in the community.
