Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Jamaica, NY, is dedicated to promoting good health among low-income pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and young children up to age five through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program. We offer free nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to nutritious foods via supplemental food vouchers, including options for infant formula. Our trained nutritionists provide guidance on healthy food choices to enhance overall wellness, while our lactation consultants offer critical breastfeeding support. Additionally, our 'Fit WIC' initiatives encourage physical activity and healthy lifestyle habits, with food demonstrations and educational activities designed to combat childhood obesity. We are committed to fostering a supportive environment where families can thrive.
