Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program in Allston, MA, is dedicated to promoting the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women, alongside children under the age of five. This free nutrition assistance initiative offers essential services including personalized nutrition consultations, healthy food, breastfeeding support, and critical referrals for healthcare and other supportive services. WIC recognizes that parenting roles come in many forms, welcoming fathers, grandparents, and other guardians to apply and participate. By providing resources ranging from nutrition and health workshops to connections with local medical services, WIC empowers families to thrive. If you are a guardian of a child under five, regardless of your employment status or marital situation, we invite you to explore your eligibility for this invaluable support program, especially if you're already receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard (Medicaid). Join us in fostering a healthier future for our youngest community members.
