Breastfeeding is natural, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot to learn! At WIC, we've got the information you need to make breastfeeding successful.

Breastfeeding is a priority in the WIC program. We know just how challenging breastfeeding can be, and we are dedicated to supporting your breastfeeding journey.

To help WIC moms breastfeed successfully, we offer nutritious foods, nutrition education and breastfeeding counseling, as well as referrals to other health and social services. This help may include peer counselor support, breast pumps, and other supplies.

To learn more about how we can help, contact our office at 910-893-7570.

The Health Department's WIC program is dedicated to supporting breastfeeding both before and after the baby arrives.
