About Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC)
The Women, Infants and Children Supplemental Food Program (WIC) in Philadelphia, MS, is dedicated to fostering the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant and postpartum women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. Our mission focuses on empowering families with essential resources including nutrition education, access to supplemental foods, breastfeeding promotion, and support, as well as referrals for healthcare services. We prioritize the well-being of every family and provide an accessible pathway to essential food assistance. To apply for benefits, individuals must visit their local county health department or WIC clinic in person. We understand that new parents may face challenges, which is why there is a 60-day period available for bringing newborns to the clinic. For more information on our services or to locate your nearest WIC clinic, please reach out directly to your local resources. We are here to support you and ensure that every child has the opportunity for a healthy start.
