Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

Women, Infants and Children (WIC) in Marshfield, MA, is a dedicated nutrition program committed to promoting the health of Massachusetts families by offering free, nutritious food and essential services to those who qualify. With a focus on supporting pregnant and breastfeeding women and children under the age of five, WIC provides access to healthy food, nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and vital referrals for medical and dental care, health insurance, childcare, housing assistance, and fuel assistance. Families receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard (Medicaid) are automatically income eligible, and foster children under five also qualify. WIC values the involvement of fathers, grandparents, stepparents, and other guardians in nurturing children, encouraging them to participate in appointments, nutrition workshops, and grocery shopping to fully utilize the benefits offered. Together, we aim to build healthier futures for our families.
