WIC Program

The WIC Program has changed our appointment system to better meet your needs.

The Henderson County WIC Program has a new appointment schedule. All new appointments should be made by calling the WIC office on the day you wish to come in. We accept calls on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday starting at 8:00 a.m.

To schedule your next WIC appointment, please check your vouchers to see when you will need to come in. Try to schedule your WIC appointment about 1 week before your last vouchers run out.

When you call the health department at (828) 692-4223, please select the following options in this order:

#5 for WIC
#1 for WIC
#1 for appointments

Please stay on the line. DO NOT HANG UP.
