WIC - The Women, Infants, and Children Nutrition Program

Appointments, (509) 634-2391

​WIC is a place where families like yours get healthy food and a lot more. WIC is for pregnant people, new and breastfeeding moms, and children under 5. WIC made a difference for over 196,000 women, infants and children in Washington in 2021. Almost half of all babies in our state are on WIC. 

Our service area covers all of the Colville Reservation (Keller, Inchelium, Omak and Nespelem) plus Grand Coulee. We have often have clients in Wilbur or Coulee City come to Grand Coulee to meet with us. You do NOT need to be a Tribal member to use our services or get benefits.
