Women, Infant and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Elmhurst, NY, is dedicated to improving the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to five years old. Through vital nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to a variety of nutritious foods, WIC ensures that our participants receive essential nutrients that are often lacking in their diets. By focusing on the needs of women and young children, WIC helps promote longer, healthier pregnancies, reduces the incidence of premature births, and fosters overall well-being in families. We welcome all eligible individuals residing in New York State, regardless of citizenship status, and provide guidance on the application process to ensure ease of access. To qualify, participants should meet specific criteria and provide necessary documentation during their visit. Join us at WIC for the support you need and the nourishment that makes a difference.
