Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children Program (WIC) in El Monte, CA, is dedicated to fostering the health and nutrition of families through essential support services. This federally-funded program provides vital nutrition education and access to healthy supplemental foods, ensuring that women, infants, and children receive the care they need to thrive. WIC offers assistance in purchasing nutritious foods, valuable breastfeeding support, and connections to healthcare and community resources. We invite interested families to complete an online application to determine eligibility, understanding that enrollment is finalized during the initial WIC appointment. To prioritize public health, services are currently being conducted via phone and online due to COVID-19 precautions. Our goal is to streamline access to food assistance and benefits for individuals and families, helping them navigate these challenging times with compassion and care.
