Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) located in Natick, MA, is a vital resource dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of women, infants, and children. As a federally-funded initiative, WIC supports families by providing essential nutrition education, issuing checks for healthy supplemental foods, and connecting participants to healthcare and community services. Our comprehensive offerings include personalized counseling on breastfeeding, infant feeding practices, maintaining a healthy diet during pregnancy, and making nutritious food choices within a limited budget. Participants receive a WIC card for convenient access to approved foods at local grocery stores, encompassing fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, dairy, infant formula, and more. Additionally, WIC provides referrals to health and social services, as well as access to fresh produce through our coupons for farmers' markets. We also host the Good Food Project, featuring weekly discussions around healthy eating, cooking tips, and meal planning strategies. WIC's services are designed for pregnant and breastfeeding women, new mothers, and children under five, including those with low to medium incomes. We encourage interested families to apply online or contact us for further assistance, ensuring that all appointments are conducted safely by phone.
