What Is WIC?

WIC safeguards the health of women, infants and children up to age five by providing nutritious foods to supplement diets, information on healthy eating, and referrals to healthcare.

WIC Staff meet one-on-one with clients to educate them on basic nutrition and all clients receive supplemental, nutritious foods. Referrals are also made to other IHC departments and social services as necessary to benefit our clients needs. Indian Health Center's WIC program operates from two locations. The main WIC office is located at 1685 Westwood Drive, Suite 4, 1 block from our main site and the second office is located in Mountain View. Go to our Contact Page for addresses and direction to these offices.
