National Disease Intervention Specialist Day

Today, October 2, we recognize National Disease Intervention Specialist Day and the dedicated professionals working behind the scenes to protect the health of our communities.

Disease Intervention Specialists (DIS) are public health “disease detectives” who help prevent and control the spread of disease through case investigation, contact tracing, education, connecting people to care, and compassionate support.

We’re proud to celebrate our East Central Health District DIS team and thank them for the important work they do every day to keep our communities healthy and safe.
Join us in thanking our DIS team today!

🩵 World Breastfeeding Week | August 1–7, 2026 🩵

Each year, World Breastfeeding Week brings communities around the world together to celebrate, protect, and support breastfeeding. This global observance highlights the many health benefits breastfeeding provides for both babies and mothers while encouraging families to have the support they need to succeed.

This year's theme, "Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works," reminds us that when we invest in proven support systems, we help families build healthier futures.

At the East Central Health District WIC Program, we're committed to strengthening what works by providing:
🤱 Breastfeeding education
💙 Compassionate support and encouragement
🥗 Nutritious supplemental foods
👩‍⚕️ Resources to help families every step of the way

Throughout World Breastfeeding Week, we'll celebrate breastfeeding families and recognize the dedicated WIC staff and community partners who make a difference every day.

Join us August 1–7 as we honor the power of breastfeeding—one mother, one baby, and one family at a time.
