PHFE WIC held its fourth annual Family Resource fair on May 20, 2025, at the Whitter Narrows Recreation Area in El Monte Valley, California. Over a thousand families connected with our community partners today and received resources for child care, children’s books, diapers, nutrition education, and so much more.
The event highlights WIC’s commitment to being a part of growing families’ support system. WIC builds trust with its program participants and is deeply connected with other local resources and community-based organizations. As a result, WIC connects families to resources they may not know about.
In honor of breastfeeding, PHFE WIC hosted its second annual “Latch On” event, inviting breastfeeding parents for a big group photo. Over 100 amazing moms came together to create a fun and memorable experience, normalizing breastfeeding in our community.
Special thanks to our speakers: Peter Dale, Chief Program Officer of Heluna Health; Megan Esparza, California WIC Association Executive Director; Cindy Clapp, PHFE WIC Deputy Director; and Kiran Saluja, Executive Director of PHFE WIC.
To our dedicated WIC staff and community partners, thank you for participating, supporting, and promoting this event. Your collective efforts make a difference in the lives of families in our community.
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
