Our hearts go out to those affected by the Ruidoso fires. Last week our community outreach specialists and care coordinators joined the disaster relief efforts at the evacuee resource center in Roswell to help members access care, medical services, hydration and hygiene items. The New Mexico Department of Health and Vdex Diabetes were there to provide health screenings in the BCBSNM Care Van® to everyone in need.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the #WorldBreastfeedingWeek event at the Otero County Public Health Office on Thursday! The event, which was open to the public and WIC participants, featured 8 community agencies including HELPNew Mexico, Inc., COPE Center of Protective Environment, Dandelion Birth & Beyond, LLC, Otero County Community Health Council & Behavioral Health LC 12, 100% Otero, Holloman Family Advocacy and New Parent Support Programs, the New Mexico Breastfeeding Task Force, and Otero County Public Health Office programs (Families First and Childrens Medical Services).

Roses were also presented to all breastfeeding moms courtesy of Albertsons Market. Our WIC team presented a demonstration using WIC foods and served delicious egg, cheese, and salsa breakfast tacos to participants. Pastries and water were donated by the Inn of the Mountain Gods and fresh fruit and granola bars were available for children. We had a fantastic time serving our community alongside our wonderful partners! WIC locations will continue to host World Breastfeeding events at all statewide WIC locations.
