Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Mount Vernon, 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 our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we provide essential nutrition education, breastfeeding support, referrals, and a selection of nutritious foods that fill vital dietary gaps for mothers and their young children. By participating in WIC, families can experience healthier pregnancies and improved health outcomes for their infants and toddlers. We welcome residents of New York State, including non-citizens, who meet our income eligibility criteria, or who are enrolled in Food Stamps, Medicaid, or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. To access our services, individuals must schedule an appointment and bring necessary documentation, including proof of identity, residency, income, and, for mothers, evidence of pregnancy. We invite you to join our community and support your family's health today.
