The Washington State Women, Infant, and Children (WIC) Nutrition Program is introducing a new WIC shopping and clinic experience.  The Klickitat County Health Department and other WIC clinics in the region on Monday began replacing paper checks with WIC Cards.  The cards will provide participants with a more flexible, convenient way to shop for WIC foods.  County health officials say WIC participants will be able to scan their card at the grocery store checkout to purchase WIC foods, which should reduce stress and save time at checkout.  All family WIC benefits will now be available on one card—so families no longer have to keep track of separate checks for each family member, and families can also shop throughout the month, rather than having to purchase all their WIC food in one trip.  For local WIC information, call the Klickitat County Health Department at 1.888.267.1199 in White Salmon or 1.888.291.3521 in Goldendale.
