Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Billerica, MA, is a vital federally-funded health and nutrition initiative dedicated to supporting families through expert nutrition education and essential food assistance. Our program focuses on empowering women, infants, and children by providing guidance on breastfeeding, healthy eating during pregnancy, and proper nutrition for infants and young children under the age of five. We offer WIC cards to redeem nutritious foods, including fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and infant formula, at local grocery stores and pharmacies. Additionally, we facilitate access to referrals for healthcare services and community resources to enhance overall well-being. Our Good Food Project delivers weekly sessions on making healthy choices and budgeting for nutritious meals, ensuring that families with low to medium incomes can thrive. WIC is here to help those who need it most, fostering a healthier future for our community’s children.
