Alissa Orozco

Central Regional Alternate

My name is Alissa Orozco. I’ve been the WIC Director for the Williamson County & Cities Health District (WCCHD) WIC Program, LA-042, since December 2018. I’ve had the honor of working in many capacities at WCCHD WIC since 2011, including WIC Nutritionist/ Certifying Authority, Clinic Team Lead, Quality Management Coordinator, Training Coordinator, Assistant Director, and Director. I love serving WIC families and I also love serving on the TALWD Board as the Central Region Representative. I’m a single mother of 2 awesome kids! I have a daughter, Abbey, who is a freshman at Texas A&M and a son, Gunner, in the eighth grade. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, spending time with my kids and supporting their extra-curricular activities.
