WIC
WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) is a nutrition education program offering healthy foods and other services free of charge.
The WIC program helps to promote healthier lifestyle by providing education, nutritional assessments, and access to nutritious foods. WIC EBT cards can be used to at WIC approved vendors for foods such as cereal, milk, juice, cheese, peanut butter, formula, vegetables, eggs, whole grains, and beans. The WIC program is an equal opportunity provider.
Breastfeeding Services
At WIC, we are dedicated to empowering women through their breastfeeding journeys — offering expertise and encouragement every step of the way. We have dedicated specialists available to help mother’s of all backgrounds with their breastfeeding needs.
WIC Breastfeeding Mobile Unit
For rural southern counties, we are providing additional support through our Mobile Unit. We provide the same great in-office breastfeeding services you can find at any WIC clinic, but we’re bringing the office to you instead. Our specially designed unit is fully equipped to help mothers with all of their breastfeeding concerns where and when they need it most!
Counties include: Adams, Blackford, Huntington, Jay, Randolph and Wells.

Desire, our Peer Counselor, is a dedicated cheerleader for mothers. As a mother of three, she breastfed both of her children. A WIC client since 2012, Desire joined our team in May 2024, motivated by her passion for promoting breastfeeding, especially among young mothers.
