Southcentral Foundation values family as the heart of the Alaska Native Community. To support the goal of building healthy families, SCF now has a Special Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children office available to customer-owners and residents in the Anchorage area. WIC addresses the nutritional needs of pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, postpartum non-breastfeeding mothers, and children under age 5. The program provides breastfeeding support, free healthy foods, nutritional counseling, health screenings, referrals to additional programs, and more. While often associated primarily with nutrition, WIC strives to promote breastfeeding support to as many families as possible.
