About Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC)
The Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC) in Hattiesburg, MS, is dedicated to fostering healthy food choices for low-income pregnant women, postpartum mothers, and children from birth to five years. Our mission is to support families by providing essential nutrition education, access to supplemental healthy foods, and comprehensive breastfeeding promotion and support. In addition, we connect families with necessary health care resources to ensure a holistic approach to wellness. To access WIC benefits, applicants are required to apply in person at their local county health department or WIC clinic. Understanding that some parents may find it challenging to bring their newborns to our clinic, we offer a convenient 60-day grace period for first visits. We are here to empower families and enhance the well-being of our community through vital food assistance programs.
