Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a dedicated nutrition program serving Fort Collins, CO, aimed at promoting the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, along with children under the age of 5. This community-oriented initiative offers free nutritious groceries, personalized nutrition consultations, breastfeeding support, and referrals to essential services like medical care and housing assistance, catering to families in need. WIC empowers families through comprehensive nutrition education covering meal planning, managing picky eaters, and budgeting for healthy food. To qualify for this vital support, families must reside in Colorado, meet income guidelines, and have children under the age of 5, including automatically eligible foster children. For those who currently receive assistance through TANF, Food Stamps, or Medicaid, access to WIC is even easier.
