Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program in South Boston, MA, is dedicated to ensuring the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under the age of five, by offering essential food assistance and nutrition education at no cost. Our mission is to support families of all backgrounds—whether you're a parent, grandparent, or guardian—by providing personalized nutrition consultations, healthy food options, and valuable breastfeeding support. We also connect families to vital health services, including referrals for medical and dental care, health insurance, and even assistance with housing and fuel costs. At WIC, we understand the importance of community, which is why we create opportunities for caregivers to engage in discussions about nutrition and health. Automatic eligibility is granted to those receiving TAFDC, SNAP, or MassHealth Standard (Medicaid), as well as to foster children. We warmly invite families to apply and take part in our workshops and resources to promote a healthier future for every child in South Boston.
