Hi Jennifer, our local WIC administrator put me on to these resources, all
from washington state's healthy mothers, healthy babies coalition: (though
I notice the coordinator of the foreign language flyers is named Jennifer -
did I just refer you to yourself??)

This is a WIC flyer describing WIC services:
http://www.hmhbwa.org/forprof/materials/documents/Somali.FINAL.pdf
This page offers their Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies book in Somali
http://www.hmhbwa.org/ourservices/prenatal.htm
and this page allows you to order some of their materials in Somali:
http://www.hmhbwa.org/forprof/materials/requestform.php

But as I understand from our local WIC administrator, many of these women
are unable to read their language, so our problem is not necessarily with a
lack of materials, but a lack of moms who can read them or translators to
read them to the moms.  To my 100% uninformed eye, Somali looks a little
phoenetic - so maybe someone could stumble through reading it to them??

I am in Burlington Vermont, where we have just had an influx of somali moms
and young kids, so maybe contacting our WIC office directly would get you
the information you need. You can find contact info here:

Hope this helps... and good luck!
