Senate Bill 1573 created a program under the Department of Health Services to provide folic acid to low-income women of childbearing age through the local health departments. Participants in the program receive a year supply of multivitamins (with 400 micrograms of folic acid) in addition to education on the link between folic acid and the prevention of serious birth defects.
Multivitamins are available at our WIC offices in Springerville, St. Johns and Concho.
