Food Assistance for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
WIC is a Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children provided by the Illinois Department of Human Services. It serves to safeguard the health of low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk by providing nutritious foods to supplement diets, information on healthy eating including breastfeeding promotion and support, and referrals to health care.
WIC Informational Videos
To assist in providing WIC services to Afghan newcomers, our Midwest partners from Indiana WIC have graciously shared their Pashto and Dari videos to assist in breastfeeding and nutrition basics.
