It’s , and this year’s theme is “Work. Pump. Advance. Empowering the modern parent.” đŸ€± At WIC, we support working parents by providing breast pumps, peer support and lactation experts, nutritious food, and personalized food packages to support your breastfeeding goals.

We believe breastfeeding parents should be able to feed their babies or toddlers (or pump/hand express milk!) at work, school, and in public with respect and support. Learn more about your breastfeeding rights: https://signupwic.com/resources/know-your-rights-breastfeeding
