Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
Washoe County Health District
The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program in Sun Valley, NV, is dedicated to fostering healthy food habits among low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, along with infants and children up to five years old. WIC offers essential services such as free eligibility screenings, including assessments of hemoglobin, height, weight, and medical history to identify specific nutritional needs. Eligible participants may receive benefits for up to a year, with the option to reapply as conditions allow. The program also connects families to vital health and social services like immunizations and prenatal care, while providing education on nutrition, breastfeeding, and healthy food selections. Monthly distributions of nutritious supplemental foods, including fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and infant formula, further support the health of families. Furthermore, participation in WIC does not affect immigration status, ensuring that all eligible families can access these vital resources and support without fear. Together, we work towards healthier communities, one family at a time.
