About Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC)
The Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC) in Petal, MS, is dedicated to fostering healthy nutrition for low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years of age. We provide essential services including nutrition education, food assistance with supplemental foods, and robust breastfeeding support, alongside beneficial referrals for health care. At WIC, we understand the importance of accessible resources for families; applicants must apply in person at their local county health department or WIC clinic. For parents who prefer not to bring their newborns immediately, there is a convenient 60-day window to complete the necessary visit. We encourage families in Petal to reach out to their local WIC clinic to explore the services available to them and empower their health journey.
