Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Elmont, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and young children through essential nutrition assistance. Our program offers vital nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and a selection of nutritious foods aimed at filling the dietary gaps often faced by women and children under five. By promoting healthy eating and providing resources, WIC helps ensure that participants experience longer, healthier pregnancies and reduces the risk of premature births. We welcome pregnant women, infants, children up to five years old, and breastfeeding mothers, regardless of U.S. citizenship status, as long as they meet our income requirement or receive benefits from programs like Food Stamps or Medicaid. To engage with our services, residents can visit our location with necessary documentation, including proof of identity, residency, income, and, if applicable, confirmation of pregnancy. Join us at WIC to support your family’s health and nutrition needs in a caring and respectful environment.
