Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children Program (WIC) in Wilmington, MA, is a vital federally-funded initiative dedicated to supporting the nutritional health of women, infants, and children. Our mission is to provide essential food assistance, including nutrition education and counseling tailored to the unique needs of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under five years old. Through our program, families receive checks for healthy supplemental foods, and the WIC card can be used at local grocery stores and pharmacies for approved items such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and infant formulas. WIC also offers invaluable referrals to healthcare and social services, ensuring families have access to a comprehensive support network. Participating families can take advantage of our coupons for fresh produce at farmer’s markets and join our Good Food Project, which features weekly healthy eating topics, recipes, and food demonstrations. Serving low to medium-income families, we are here to empower your journey toward better nutrition. Interested families can apply for WIC online or schedule a phone appointment for assistance.
