Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Carbondale, IL, is dedicated to fostering healthy feeding practices and nutrition education for low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and children up to five years of age. With a focus on empowering families, WIC provides essential resources including nutritious supplemental foods, breastfeeding support, and valuable referrals to medical and community services. We invite eligible families to connect with us for a comprehensive intake appointment, typically lasting about 60 to 90 minutes, to discuss tailored support that promotes well-being for both mothers and their children.
