WIC clinics will reopen this summer for in-person visits. We’re excited to see you in person again!

Watch for your appointment reminder to see if your next appointment is in-person or over the phone. You can always text 20121 or call 503-988-3503 if you have questions.

Your visits to our WIC clinics let us check your child’s growth and health. It also helps us give your family the best information and referrals.

While we work to bring appointments back to our clinics, we will keep some of the phone and online services that helped provide more options for you.

Three years ago, we reinvented how we work by offering virtual services for WIC families. You showed great resilience and patience while we set up new systems. Thank you!
