Welcome to the Massachusetts WIC Program Community Network Area.

This section of the Learning Center TrainingWeb is devoted to Community Coordinators, to learn and share information about community coordination and outreach.


Community Network Database
Our exciting new database project is rocketing Community Coordination into the future!
An extensive, well-managed network is the engine that drives WIC's mission as a major presence in local communities. Community Coordinators, with the help of State and Local Program supervisory staff, are creating a unique web-based system for managing community contacts.

Virtual Workshop - Newsletters
For several years, The WIC Learning Center has conducted training workshops on newsletter design. The workshops focus on practical ways to gather content, design page layouts, and distribute newsletters for WIC participants. Now, with the help of Community Coordinators, we've captured much of the knowledge gained in the workshops, and published it as a Virtual Workshop.
