WHMC WIC Program Celebrates World Breastfeeding Week 2026

On Wednesday, August 5th, the WHMC WIC Program proudly celebrated its Annual Breastfeeding Event in honor of World Breastfeeding Week. This year's theme, "Strengthen What Works," highlighted the importance of supporting families and recognizing the many ways parents nourish and care for their children.

The event brought together WIC participants, families, community members, and staff for a day of education, engagement, and celebration. Whether families are breastfeeding, formula feeding, combination feeding, or supporting a loved one on their infant feeding journey, the WHMC WIC Program recognizes and celebrates their commitment to giving children the healthiest possible start in life.

Participants had the opportunity to connect with WIC staff, learn about available resources and services, and enjoy a variety of WIC-approved foods grown locally in the WIC Community Garden. Attendees were also invited to tour the community garden, where they explored a vibrant space filled with fresh herbs, fruits, and vegetables cultivated to promote healthy eating and wellness within the community.

The success of this event was further strengthened by the participation of several valued community partners. Representatives from the WHMC PICHC Program, Grand Street Settlement, New Life Child Development Center, and EmblemHealth were in attendance to share information about their programs and services.

The WHMC WIC Program is grateful to all participants, staff, and community partners who helped make this year's World Breastfeeding Week celebration a meaningful and successful event. Together, we continue to strengthen what works by supporting healthy families, fostering community connections, and empowering parents every step of the way.

This World Hepatitis Day, let's break the silence and the stigma. The truth is, hepatitis doesn't discriminate; it can affect anyone, regardless of background.

Misinformation often creates barriers to testing and treatment. We're here to help break down those barriers. Hepatitis can be complex, sometimes acquired in ways we don't expect, like unsafe medical procedures from years ago.

The best way to protect your health is through knowledge and action. That's why we're encouraging everyone to fight the stigma by getting tested. It's a simple step that makes a big difference.

Join the World Hepatitis Alliance and us this July 28th. Let's make liver health a priority for everyone.
