Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Amherst, MA, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women and children up to age five. By offering essential food assistance, WIC provides a debit card for purchasing nutritious foods, comprehensive nutrition assessments, and valuable education. Our program also extends vital support through breastfeeding assistance, immunization screening, and referrals to various social services to ensure families receive the holistic care they need. Additionally, we supply breast pumps and infant formula to further support the nutritional needs of mothers and their little ones. WIC is here to empower families by fostering healthier habits and connecting them with community resources.
