Neighborhood Services Organization (NSO) maintains two federally-funded WIC clinics to serve low-income and at-risk populations. Our WIC clinics provide income-based programs to more than 100 participants daily. We supply free nutrition education, supplemental foods and assistance to mothers with infants. This helps prevent health problems during an infant’s critical phases of growth and development. Our clinics hold weekly breastfeeding classes, general nutrition classes, high-risk classes and lactation consultations. We also have a full-time nutritionist on staff.
By partnering with different agencies, we also offer parenting and literacy classes. Clients are referred to other programs for immunizations, smoking cessation, health care, dental care, day care and other services as needed.
Our WIC clinics will be moving and we need volunteers to help pack up and move them. This project does not have a specific date, but will be sometime after July 1.
If you would like to volunteer for this project please contact Rachel Dillon, Volunteer Assistant, at rdillon@nsookc.org
