The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program is a
supplemental food and nutrition education program
that services financially eligible women, infants, and
children under the age of five. Fathers, step-parents,
foster parents, grandparents and guardians are also
encouraged to apply for these benefits for any eligible
children in the household.
The goal of the WIC program is to help keep pregnant
and breastfeeding women, new moms, and kids under
age five healthy. It provides:
• Personalized nutrition information and support
• Benefits to buy healthy food
• Tips for eating well to improve health
• Referrals for services that can benefit the whole
family
The program also offers immunization screening and
referral, breastfeeding support, and nutrition and
health classes on a variety of topics, including meal
planning, maintaining a healthy weight, picky eaters,
caring for a new baby, shopping on a budget and more.
