WHAT IS “WIC MESSAGING”? 

WIC MESSAGING is a system where WIC participants sign up to be contacted by WIC through EMAIL and/or TEXT MESSAGES instead of by telephone. (Participants may still receive a telephone call from WIC if we need their input on a short survey or they are about to deliver their baby).

   Send an email to wic@phfewic.org and include in the SUBJECT LINE:
