Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Located in Maspeth, NY, the Women, Infants, Children (WIC) program provides essential food assistance and nutrition education to support the health and well-being of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and children up to age five. Our mission is to promote better health outcomes through a variety of nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, and community resources tailored to meet the unique needs of women and children. By participating in WIC, families benefit from vital nutrients often lacking in their diets, contributing to longer, healthier pregnancies and fewer premature births. Eligibility is open to pregnant women and children who meet specific income guidelines or who receive benefits from programs such as Food Stamps or Medicaid. To join, you’ll need to bring detailed documentation to verify identity, residency, income, and participation in assistance programs.
