Women, Infant and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Corona, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the nutritional health of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to age five. By providing nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to nutritious foods, WIC plays a vital role in promoting healthy pregnancies and improving overall family health. The program specifically targets nutrients often lacking in the diets of women and young children, ensuring they receive the essential support they need for longer and healthier pregnancies. To be eligible for WIC, applicants must be pregnant, an infant, a child up to five years old, or a breastfeeding mother of a baby up to twelve months old, residing in New York State, with income that meets established guidelines or participation in programs like Food Stamps or Medicaid. To enroll, simply bring necessary documentation including proof of identity, residence, income, and relevant health records to your appointment.
