Learning to Live Well

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program is a federally funded initiative that provides supplemental foods, nutrition education, and health care referrals to low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, as well as infants and children under age five at nutritional risk. Local WIC offices, managed by state governments, assist families in navigating the application process and accessing essential services tailored to their needs. In addition to financial support for groceries, WIC clinics often offer basic medical services and health care referrals, ensuring families receive comprehensive assistance for their overall wellbeing. By visiting a local WIC center, eligible individuals can learn about available benefits, program requirements, and additional resources in their communities. Generated from the website
