The Association was founded in 1987 by six local WIC staff who
delivered WIC services to clients across Washington state. These
founding mothers recognized the need to bring together the collective
knowledge of WIC professionals in the state to share and disseminate
advances in nutrition and health sciences in order to strengthen
the quality of the services provided to low-income women, infants,
and children.
The purpose of this Association is to link local WIC programs
in the state of Washington in a forum and to act collectively
on behalf of these programs to include the following functions:
|
- To act as a resource network through which selected ideas,
materials and procedures can be provided to persons working
in the WIC community.
- To promote the improved health, well-being and nutritional
status of women, infants and children.
- To act as a resource at the request of governmental bodies
and individual legislators regarding issues particular to
the health and nutrition of women, infants and children
and to assist WIC clients.
- To do whatever is necessary to promote and sustain the WIC program.
