Until you become familiar shopping using WIC, you may want to visit one of the North Las Vegas WIC Approved stores listed below in the late evening or early morning when it isn't so crowded. To see what you can buy, view the NV WIC approved food list.

That way it will look like you have your cart well organized and you don't end up standing in the aisle with a look of confusion with book in hand.

Because of that, we recommend you plan out what you want to buy and make a list before you get to the store. Most grocery stores do not make it easy with the WIC logo next to the items you can purchase. Shopping with your Nevada WIC food guide can feel somewhat unnerving. Also, you can look for the "WIC Accepted Here" sign at the grocery store or pharmacy entrance to see if they accept NV WIC benefits. Sometimes their status can change from time to time. If you do find a location you plan to visit, we recommend calling them before going shopping to verify they still sell items approved by the Nevada WIC program. Select a location listed below to view the stores phone number, address and when they are open. “Many WIC recipients are having difficulty getting their benefits due to lack of childcare or transportation and some are not comfortable being out in public at this time,” said Jessica Sheldon, Program Director. “This truly personalized drop-off service allows Catholic Charities to help WIC recipients safely access their benefits in a secure manner without having to leave their homes.”Ĭurrent WIC recipients or those who are eligible to receive WIC in the state of Nevada, can call Catholic Charities directly at 775.225.7063 or reach out to their local WIC agency.This page provides a list of WIC approved stores in North Las Vegas Nevada.
