WIC – Women, Infants & Children
It is not unusual to find children living in the YK Delta who have an unhealthy weight—nearly half of all children ages 2 to 5 enrolled in YKHC’s WIC Program are either overweight or obese. With high rates of overweight and obesity among children, world health experts are predicting that this generation of children will be the first to live shorter lives than their parents.
USDA policy requires that applicants must apply in person for WIC benefits at their local WIC clinic. Parents not wanting to bring their newborns in to the WIC clinic have a 60-day period during which the newborn must be seen at the WIC clinic.
