We have some exciting news to share!

Crawford County Health Department’s WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Program was awarded the 2025 Premier Breastfeeding Award of Excellence!

CCHD was the only agency in the state of Illinois to receive the Premier Award this year, and one of only 15 recipients for the entire Midwest region.

The Breastfeeding Award of Excellence is given at three levels of performance that build on one another: Gold (CCHD received the Gold Award in 2023), Premiere, and Elite.

The award recognizes local WIC agencies that have provided exemplary breastfeeding promotion and support activities. The intent is to provide models and inspire other local agencies to strengthen their breastfeeding promotion and support activities and ultimately increase breastfeeding initiation and duration rates among WIC participants.

We are so proud of our WIC team and all the work they put in to making our Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Program the best it can be.

Fight the Bite Friday
Higher temperatures reduce the time needed for mosquitoes to reproduce. Mosquitoes that spread West Nile virus can reproduce in as little as 7 days. Continue to protect yourself against mosquito-borne diseases by applying EPA-registered insect repellent and dumping out standing water around your home.
