Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Ridgewood, NY, passionately supports the health and well-being of low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, as well as infants and children up to age five. Through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we offer vital nutrition education delivered by our experienced staff of nutritionists, helping families make healthy food choices for a brighter future. Our program also provides food assistance in the form of supplemental food vouchers, ensuring access to nutritious foods and infant formula. Understanding the importance of breastfeeding, our dedicated lactation consultants offer valuable support and education to new mothers. We further inspire healthy lifestyles through initiatives like 'Fit WIC,' which promotes physical activity and provides engaging food demonstrations, empowering families to combat obesity together. At WIC, we are committed to nurturing the health of our community, one family at a time.
