Office of Nutrition Services


Raleigh County WIC Office

 

Tucked away between the Beckley/Raleigh County Health Department, formerly known as the Eleanor Hurt Health Clinic, and the Veterans of all Wars Museum on Harper Road, the small modular cream-colored building, its windows trimmed in the traditional green of the WIC logo, sits the Beckley/Raleigh County WIC Clinic.  Although small in dimension, this WIC site handles the largest number of WIC customers in the southern part of the state.

Participants and children alike enjoy a visit to the clinic. 

The play area allows space for toddlers to interact and play with other children.  Parents have opportunities as well, as they can sit back and enjoy an informative video on their well-being and nutrition while they wait to be seen in the clinic.

The Beckley Clinic attempts to answer all needs of its participants, whether it be advice about diet, formula changes, or other helpful social services. 

We have expanded the program to include literacy by providing free books at the child's birthday and reading sessions.

We also provide information about fruits and vegetables, the inclusion of calcium, proteins and carbohydrates into the diet, as well as a list of iron rich foods to enhance hemoglobin readings.

The WIC program at the Beckley/Raleigh County Clinic eagerly invites all who qualify for the program and hope that in some way, we can be instrumental in improving your family's lives, nutritionally and psychologically.  We believe that WIC improves lives and helps provide a better future for the children. 

To schedule an appointment or for more information about the WIC Program, contact the Beckley office at 304-255-9034 or 1-888-454-3928.  Our office hours are 8:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday.
