Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to age five in Lindenhurst, NY. Through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we provide essential nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to nutritious foods that are often lacking in their diets. Our mission is to promote healthier pregnancies, reduce the incidence of premature births, and ultimately improve the health of both mothers and children. To qualify for WIC services, applicants must be residents of New York State and meet specific income guidelines or receive benefits from programs like Food Stamps, Medicaid, or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. We encourage interested individuals to bring documentation such as proof of identity, residency, income, participation in aid programs, and medical records to their appointments for assessment. We are here to support our community with practical resources and compassionate care.
