Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in Burlington, MA, is dedicated to supporting low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, along with infants and children up to five years old. Our mission is to foster healthy food habits through personalized nutrition education and counseling tailored to the unique needs of families. WIC offers vital resources including breastfeeding support, educational materials, and essential supplies like breast pumps. Participants receive a debit card to purchase nutritious foods, such as milk, whole grains, beans, cereals, fruits, and vegetables, with the help of our trained counselors who work with you to create an individualized food package. Additionally, we connect families with other vital community services such as SNAP, housing assistance, daycare, dental care, clothing support, and fuel assistance. If you currently receive TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth, you may be automatically eligible for WIC, with foster children under five also qualifying for this essential program. We are here to empower families in achieving optimal health and well-being.
