Formula shortage
Due to the nationwide formula shortage, the WIC program can temporarily issue most brand-named formulas in most sizes to help you buy what is available in the stores. To change your formula benefit while you are at the store or to talk about formula options, please call your WIC office at (520) 724-7777 during business hours.
*Please note: formulas for medical conditions may still require a prescription from your doctor.*
Breastfeeding services including peer counseling, lactation consultants, and loaner breast pumps are also available through the WIC program. Call us at (520) 724-7777 for services. For 24-hour breastfeeding help, please call the AZ Breastfeeding Hotline at 1-800-833-4642.
For additional resources, www.healthychildren.org has multiple tips on what to do if you are having difficulty finding formula. The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services also has an infant formula resource page which you can find here.
