Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
Program Information

Women Infants and Children ImageWIC is a program for women, infants and children.  WIC provides ideas on fixing healthy meals and snacks.  It is important for pregnant women, women who have had a baby in the last year, and children up to the age of five to eat meals and snacks that include all the basic food groups every day.  WIC also provides checks that you use at your local store to help you buy the food items that your family needs to eat better.

Calls are screened through the Douglas/Sarpy WIC Main Office in downtown Omaha.  The number is (402) 444-1770.  If you can enroll in WIC, you are given the number for the clinic of your choice.  You do not have to go to the clinic in the area where you live.  You must make an appointment so WIC can see if you or your child has a problem with eating right.
