Resources for your WIC office
WIC families are diverse and access our resources for multiple reasons. CWA has developed and refined multiple strategies to best serve the needs of families and keep parents and caregivers engaged in WIC to benefit their children and communities. Use the resources here to strengthen WIC outreach and services.
Working for Better Health
Together, we lead California communities to nourish, educate, support, and empower families in building a healthy future. WIC services are provided to one million California families by 84 local agencies (health departments, Indian Health centers, and nonprofit organizations) under contract with the California Department of Public Health.
