Changes in the WIC Program


Starting in September 09 Indiana WIC (Women,Infants and Children) is making changes for better health. Participants will continue to recieve milk, cereal, eggs, juice, and peanut butter but they will also recieve whole grain breads, fresh fruit and veggies, and baby foods at 6 months old. WIC will also help your childs eating habits by offering infant cereal at 6 months of age, juice when the child turns 1 year old, and switching to lower fat milk for everyone over the age of 2 years old.

For more information contact your local Indiana WIC clinic or call 800-522-0874.
