Newborn Screening Awareness Month

September is Newborn Screening Awareness Month, and we’re celebrating the simple test that saves thousands of lives every single year.

It’s a heel prick that checks for more than 30 serious but treatable health conditions. This screening gives babies the best chance at a healthy start by catching issues before symptoms even appear.

Hispanic Heritage Month: September 15 – October 15

¡Celebramos! Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! 🎉🌎

From September 15 to October 15, we honor the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities across the United States. At WIC, we are proud to serve and celebrate our diverse families every day!

Food is at the heart of so many traditions. With WIC, your family can enjoy culturally significant foods, like:

🌽 Corn (maíz) – a staple rich in fiber
🫘 Beans (frijoles) – packed with protein and iron
🍚 Brown Rice (arroz) – a versatile whole grain option
🥑 Avocados (aguacates) – full of healthy fats
🍌 Plantains (plátanos) – a great source of vitamins A and C

Talk to your WIC nutritionist about how to include your favorite cultural foods in your WIC shopping. Visit www.signupwic.com to get started.

Newborn Screening Awareness Month

Es el Mes de Concientización del Cribado Neonatal, y estamos celebrando la prueba sencilla que permite salvar miles de vidas cada año.

Se trata de un pinchazo en el talón para detectar más de 30 afecciones de salud graves, pero tratables. El cribado es una gran oportunidad para que los bebés tengan un comienzo saludable, ya que detecta problemas antes de que aparezcan los síntomas.

Obtenga más información sobre el cribado neonatal aquí: https://newbornscreening.hrsa.gov/es
