🚨 Important WIC Update: Government Shutdown 🚨
We’ve been receiving a lot of calls asking if WIC benefits are being paused due to the government shutdown. As of now, WIC remains open and fully operational.
✅ You will continue to receive your benefits as scheduled, as long as you remain in compliance and attend your WIC appointments.
✅ We are still able to determine eligibility, take height/weight and hemoglobin measurements, complete paperwork, and provide nutrition and breastfeeding education, support, and referrals.
We’ve also heard reports that some stores are turning people away or saying WIC cards can’t be used. This is not true. Your WIC Nutrition Card is still active and can be used as normal. SNAP is not affiliated with WIC, and their shutdown does not affect WIC.
If you experience any issues using your card or a store refuses your WIC purchase, please contact our clinic right away so we can help resolve it.
In the event that WIC would have to close due to an extended government shutdown, you WILL be notified. Please check our page for updates.
Thank you for your patience and understanding...
