Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) is a vital program located in Saratoga Springs, NY, dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and children up to five years old. Through our Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we provide essential nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and a diverse selection of nutrient-rich foods that often help fill the gaps in the diets of mothers and young children. By participating in WIC, families experience longer, healthier pregnancies and a decrease in premature births. We welcome all eligible residents of New York State, regardless of U.S. citizenship, to apply, as long as they meet income guidelines or receive benefits from programs like Food Stamps or Medicaid. To access our services, individuals should bring identification, proof of residence, income documentation, and any relevant medical forms to their appointment. Together, we strive to promote better health outcomes for our families and communities.
