Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in Hingham, MA, is dedicated to promoting healthy food habits among low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as children from birth to five years old. Our comprehensive services include personalized nutrition and education counseling tailored specifically to women and families, expert breastfeeding guidance, and access to essential breastfeeding supplies like breast pumps. Participants receive a debit card that allows them to purchase nutritious foods, including milk, whole grains, beans, cereals, and fresh fruits and vegetables, with the support of our trained counselors who help customize the best food package for individual needs. Additionally, we provide valuable information and referrals to other community resources such as SNAP, housing assistance, daycare, dental care, clothing, and fuel assistance. If you are currently receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth, you may be automatically income eligible for WIC, and foster children under age five also qualify for our services. Join us in fostering healthier futures for families in Hingham.
