Women, Infants, & Children (WIC)
WIC remains open to serve eligible family members. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, participants are not required to be physically present for their WIC appointment. Currently, all assessments will be completed via telephone.
Please email all documents and recent height/weight measurements to WIC@cabarrushealth.org with subject line as the mother/guardian’s last name.
