This tiny vitamin plays a big role in your and your little one's health: Let's talk about Vitamin B-12! ✨
B-12 is found naturally in animal products. Great sources of B-12 include meat, poultry, & fish; eggs & dairy products (milk, yogurt, cheese); and foods fortified with B-12 (check labels on cereals, plant-based milks, and nutritional yeast)! 🐟🍳🧀
A special note for our vegan/vegetarian families: Since B-12 isn't found in plants, fortified foods or a supplement are often necessary. Talk to your WIC nutritionist—we're here to help! 🫂
You've got questions? We've got support! If you're concerned about your B-12 intake or have questions about your diet, your local WIC clinic is your go-to resource. Let's work together to keep your family thriving. Visit www.signupwic.com to get connected!

Moving (PCSing) is a part of life for many military families, and your WIC benefits can move with you. You can even set up benefits before your household goods arrive at your new home! Many WIC offices are located on or near military bases, making it easier to get support. WIC is also available overseas through the WIC Overseas Program; wherever you're stationed, support is within reach.
Enroll anytime at www.signupwic.com. And don't forget: National WIC Enrollment Week is October 13-17!
