VNACJ WIC Program

VNACJ WIC Program We provide healthy supplemental foods at participating supermarkets, stores, and farmers' markets. Each WIC family is treated like a friend at VNACJ.

WIC is a public health nutrition program that provides nutrition and breastfeeding education, nutritious foods, and health care referrals to low-income pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age 5. The VNACJ WIC Program is a non-profit organization dedicated to safeguarding the health of low-income pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age 5.

We also provide nutrition education and counseling, breastfeeding education and ongoing support, and referrals for medical and dental care and other social services. Our purpose is to enrich the lives of women and children during critical times of growth and development through proper nutrition. We teach about topics such as healthy meals, feeding picky eaters, and achieving a healthy weight/weight loss, and so much more. WIC children enter school ready to learn, and WIC parents feel empowered to make healthy lifestyle choices for themselves and their children. This institution is an equal opportunity provider. (Esta institucion es un proveedor de igualdad de oportunidades.) http://www.nj.gov/health/fhs/wic/home/nondiscrim/shtml

Human milk has a lot of important nutrients. Colostrum, the first milk that comes out after giving birth, helps to protect your baby, as it is rich in antibodies. This can help build their immune system.

Did you know? Your baby’s skin can play a role in whether they develop a food allergy! Even before your baby is introduced to solids and new foods, they can still still come into direct contact with food allergens through their skin. If this happens regularly, it may increase their chances of developing an allergy to that particular food.

Studies show that while eating an allergen early can protect your baby from that food allergy, but if that same food touches their skin regularly, it can actually raise the risk of an allergy.

So how can you do to help protect your baby’s skin? We suggest: Wash your hands after eating, especially if the food you ate is a common allergen. Then wash your hands again before touching your baby’s skin, such as during diaper changes or when putting on lotions or creams.

To learn more about this and other food allergy topics, visit www.fampitfamily.org.
