This month, we celebrate parents for the powerful role they play. Not just in their families, but in building stronger, healthier communities. Parent leadership creates space for parents’ voices to be heard, valued, and respected, while encouraging growth, connection, and confidence.

Fruits and vegetables provide essential fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. That is why WIC provides a monthly Cash Value Benefit (CVB) for participants to purchase fresh, frozen, and canned fruits and vegetables!

Over the next few months, increased CVB will be offered in place of juice as part of our food package updates. Participants who would prefer to continue receiving juice can request a 64 oz bottle as a substitution from their clinic in place of $3 CVB.
Please check your benefit balance in the WIC Shopper App and visit https://oklahoma.gov/health/wicfood for more information.

It is important to keep safety in mind when cold weather rolls in.

When sledding, be sure to find an area free of obstacles and always go feet first.

Wear rubber soled shoes and hold onto railing if available to avoid falling. Take shorter steps and avoid walking with long strides on snow and ice!
