WebXtra: East Texas WIC clinics provide valuable nutrition resources for families in need

TYLER, Texas (KLTV) - As we wrap up National Public Health Week, we’re diving into one of the Northeast Texas Public Health District’s most important responsibilities: the operation of WIC clinics is 20 East Texas cities.

KLTV 7′s Blake Holland spoke with Tecora Smith, NET Health’s WIC director, for more on the many services they provide.

Both of NET Health’s Tyler WIC Clinics provide free produce vouchers for families to receive free fruits and vegetables at Texas Certified Farmers Markets. They also partner with the Rose City Farmers Market in Tyler. Families that receive these free vouchers can use them at any Certified Farmers Market in Texas
