Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, Children (WIC) program in Far Rockaway, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to age five through essential food assistance and nutrition education. We offer a range of services including nutritional counseling from trained specialists to help families make healthy food choices, supplemental food vouchers for nutritious foods and infant formula, and breastfeeding support from our trained lactation consultants. Our 'Fit WIC' initiatives encourage physical activity and healthy lifestyle changes, offering food demonstrations and activities throughout the year to promote overall wellness. At WIC, we are committed to supporting families in making informed choices that ensure better health for both mothers and their children.
