Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program in Roxbury, MA, is dedicated to empowering families by offering a free nutrition initiative focused on the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under the age of five. We provide vital services including personalized nutrition consultations, access to healthy foods, breastfeeding support, and essential referrals to healthcare and community resources. Our mission is to ensure that all qualifying families, regardless of employment status or family structure, can access the support they need. This includes fathers, grandparents, foster parents, and legal guardians, all of whom play a key role in nurturing the health of their children. Families receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard are automatically eligible. At WIC, we not only promote nutrition education and healthy eating habits but also create a community where caregivers can share experiences and knowledge, making it easier for families to thrive together. By choosing WIC, you open doors to resources that support both you and your child during these crucial years.
