Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

Based in Carbondale, CO, the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under the age of five. We offer essential services at no cost to qualifying families, including personalized nutrition consultations, breastfeeding support, and financial assistance for nutritious groceries. Our program goes beyond food assistance by providing referrals to vital resources such as medical and dental care, health insurance, childcare, and housing support. With a focus on nutrition education, we also cover important topics like meal planning, healthy weight maintenance, and managing picky eaters. To access WIC services, families must reside in Colorado and meet specific income guidelines; those who receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Food Stamps, or Medicaid may automatically qualify. Join us in supporting healthier families by applying for WIC benefits through your local clinic.
