WIC offers healthy foods, nutrition information and referrals for other helpful services.

Updates

  • Starting in June, the Cash Value Benefit amount will increase to $35.

  • The increase is due to new legislation from the Federal Government called The ‘‘American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.’’

  • Changes will be visible on participant Shopping Lists for June benefits being issued, starting on Friday, March 26, 2021.

  • Families that have already been issued benefits for June, can visit their WIC clinic to have the increased amount added to their WIC card.
