Women, Infants, & Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, & Children (WIC) program in Cumberland, MD, is dedicated to promoting the health and nutrition of women, infants, and children by providing essential food assistance and valuable resources. Through our comprehensive nutrition education, participants receive guidance on healthy eating practices and breastfeeding support, which are crucial for fostering healthy pregnancies and successful early childhood development. WIC services empower women to seek prenatal care earlier, improve their nutritional intake while pregnant, manage healthy weight gain, and increase the chances of delivering full-term babies. Residents of Allegany County can access these vital services by meeting specific income guidelines, ensuring that our community’s most vulnerable populations receive the care they need. Join us in our mission to strengthen families and promote healthy lifestyles.
