Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Maspeth, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five. Through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we provide essential nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and a variety of nutritious foods that are vital for healthy growth and development. Our program aims to reduce the incidence of premature births and improve overall maternal and child health by ensuring that participants have access to the nutrients often lacking in their diets. To qualify for WIC services, you need to be a resident of New York State and meet specific income guidelines or be enrolled in programs like Food Stamps or Medicaid. When you visit us, please bring necessary documentation, including proof of identity, residency, income, and, if applicable, your health care provider's confirmation of pregnancy. We invite you to reach out and apply for our supportive services that can help you and your family thrive.
