Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program in Las Animas, CO, is dedicated to fostering the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women and children under the age of five. Through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we provide essential services including nutritious groceries, personalized nutrition consultations, and breastfeeding support, all at no cost to qualifying families. Our mission is to empower families by offering nutrition education, financial assistance for healthy food options, and referrals to medical and dental care, health insurance, and more. WIC is accessible to residents of Colorado who meet specific income guidelines or receive benefits such as TANF, Food Stamps, or Medicaid. Additionally, foster children under five are automatically eligible. For those looking to strengthen their family's nutrition and health, we invite you to reach out to your local WIC clinic to learn more about how to apply and receive support.
