Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Thornton, Colorado, is dedicated to ensuring the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under five years of age. Our program offers essential food assistance and nutritious groceries at no cost to eligible families, along with personalized nutrition consultations and breastfeeding support. We understand the importance of comprehensive care, which is why we provide referrals for medical and dental care, health insurance, and child care services. Our nutrition education program covers a range of topics such as meal planning, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing picky eaters, empowering families to make informed choices. To join WIC, you need to reside in Colorado and meet specific income guidelines; if you’re receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Food Stamps, or Medicaid, you are automatically eligible. Foster children under five also qualify for our services. We welcome you to reach out to your local WIC clinic to apply and begin your journey toward better nutrition and health for your family.
