COVID-19 considerations
WIC is open for business. Some clinics are closed or have limited hours, but we are still here to help you. Please see this
list of information regarding local agency and clinic operations
and/or call your clinic for the most up-to-date information on clinic hours. Leave a message with your current phone number, and be patient, as it may take longer to return your call.
We have also temporarily added some items to our food list due to shortages at stores.
The COVID-19 vaccine is the best way to keep our children safe. The long-term effects of a pediatric COVID case can be serious and last months. The most common side-effect of the COVID vaccine,
which provides lasting protection, is a sore arm. The best way to protect children against COVID-19 is to get them vaccinated. Like other pediatric vaccines, the COVID-19 vaccine was thoroughly
tested on children before being recommended. Parents with questions should talk to a pediatrician, school nurse, or another trusted healthcare provider about their child and the COVID-19 vaccine.
Finding a vaccine is easy and getting vaccinated is free. Parents will be able to find available vaccines at vaccines.gov or by contacting their health care provider or local pharmacy.
COVID-19 vaccines are currently only available to individuals of 5 years of age or older.
