The New WIC Food Package will be available October 1, 2009.
WIC is preparing for the biggest transformation the program has seen in over 30 years!
Beginning in October of 2009, we will make unprecedented changes to the WIC food package to encourage our clients to:
- Fully breastfeed their babies.
- Eat more fruits and vegetables.
- Increase whole grain and fiber consumption.
- Lower saturated fat in the diet.
- Drink less sweetened beverages and juice.
These changes will make the foods we offer more consistent with current Dietary Guidelines, and will further solidify WIC’s role as the premier public health nutrition program.
