What a great time to be a WIC participant! Temporary funding is allowing WIC to provide $35 in fruits and vegetables to each participant. All children age 1-5, and all pregnant and post-partum women on the program will receive this increased amount from June through September. The allowance can be spent on any fresh or frozen WIC approved fruit and vegetable item. This is a great time to stock up on some of those favorites. Participants which have already been issued June and July benefits can return to the clinic to have the old amount removed and the increased amount added onto their card. To make an appointment, please call 417-256-7078 and ask for WIC!
