​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Nutrition Education is a very important part of the WIC program and we aim to help WIC moms who are at nutritional risk in achieving a positive change in dietary and physical habits, which hopefully results in an improved nutritional status. This page provides access to Nebraska WIC created nutrition education materials, as well as, other nutrition and health related resources.
