The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program is a federally funded nutrition and health support program designed to help low-income families thrive.

WIC provides supplemental healthy foods, nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and referrals to healthcare and social services for eligible pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to age five who are at nutritional risk.

Our Maternal and Child Health Nurses offer a variety of educational sessions on:

  • Breastfeeding support

  • Infant and toddler feeding

  • Preschool nutrition

  • Smart food budgeting

  • Healthy meal preparation

  • Good nutrition during pregnancy


Eligibility is based on nutritional need and income.
