The local WIC program provides services in Travis and Bastrop counties. Ms. Flores explained the WIC mission- to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children who are at nutritional risk. WIC provides nutrition education, health assessments, breastfeeding support, referrals to healthcare and other resources in the community using ConnectATX, and supplemental nutritious foods each month. Food provided varies by whether someone is pregnant, breastfeeding, or formula feeding. Exclusively breastfeeding mothers receive the largest food package. Formula is provided for moms who decide to use it. Ms. Flores explained how WIC is operating during the pandemic. WIC clinics had to close due to the pandemic. Clients are being supported through alternative service models. WIC provides nutrition and breastfeeding education every 3 months through individual or group classes and participants get their benefits cards reloaded every 3 months. WIC installed drop boxes outside of each clinic. Participants drop off their cards and WIC reloads benefits and mails them the cards. Communication with clients has been a challenge during the pandemic. Each WIC clinic has its own email account. WIC also has 2-way texting software. There is a new patient portal where clients can upload documents. WIC now has a mobile unit serving Austin and Elgin/Manor and is working to add locations to help bring services to where clients are.
