Three years ago I suddenly moved from Canada to the United States, and found out I was pregnant with my second child. I was a single mom with an autistic 2 year old and another baby on the way. I heard about the WIC office through my doctor and nervously headed down there. It was the best decision I ever made, the workers there are so kind and welcoming, never judged me or my kids, and spend countless time helping me figure out how to get back on my feet. It’s been 3 years now being a WIC family and my little family is thriving. I know my kids are getting the proper nutrition they need, and that they are up to date on their vaccines and lead screenings as well.
