Women, Infant and Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Bayside, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to age five. Our program provides essential nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to a variety of nutritious foods to ensure that mothers and their young children receive the vital nutrients they need for healthy development. By supporting healthier pregnancies and reducing risks of premature births, WIC plays a crucial role in empowering families toward better well-being. Eligibility includes being a resident of New York State, without the need for U.S. citizenship, while income guidelines or participation in programs such as SNAP or Medicaid must be met. To get started, individuals should bring necessary documentation to their appointment and can reach out to their local WIC office for further details on the application process.
