Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program in Hyde Park, MA, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of families by offering a comprehensive range of services at no cost. This essential program provides free nutritious food, personalized nutrition consultations, and breastfeeding support, all tailored to meet the needs of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under the age of five. WIC understands that every family is unique, welcoming all parents, grandparents, and guardians to apply, regardless of employment status or marital situation. In addition to nutrition assistance, WIC connects families with vital healthcare resources, including referrals for medical, dental care, and other support services, ensuring a holistic approach to well-being. Families receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard (Medicaid), along with foster children under five, qualify for the program. With WIC, we celebrate the essential roles of fathers and other caregivers, inviting them to engage in nutrition workshops and foster a community of support for the health of their children.
