Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program in Jamaica Plain, MA, is dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of families with children under the age of five through comprehensive food assistance and nutrition education. This free program offers personalized nutrition consultations, breastfeeding support, and access to healthy food, along with vital referrals to healthcare, dental services, and various community resources designed to empower families. Whether you are a working parent, a stay-at-home guardian, or a grandparent, WIC welcomes all who qualify to take part in workshops and connect with other parents. With automatic eligibility for families receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard, WIC aims to ensure that every child has access to the nutrition and support they need for a healthy start in life. We recognize the valuable role of all caregivers, including fathers and grandparents, in fostering well-rounded health and nutrition, and we encourage their active participation throughout the WIC experience.
