Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program in Hingham, MA is a vital resource designed to support the health and nutrition of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under five years old. This free program offers personalized nutrition consultations, access to healthy food, breastfeeding education and support, and invaluable referrals to essential healthcare and social services. WIC is committed to ensuring that families receive the guidance they need to thrive, regardless of their employment status or marital situation. Parents, including fathers, grandparents, and other caregivers, are encouraged to participate actively by attending appointments and workshops. Families already receiving benefits like TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard (Medicaid) are automatically income eligible, making access to WIC's resources seamless. We believe in the strength of community and the importance of shared knowledge, providing opportunities for parents to connect over nutrition and health topics that matter most to them.
