Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Valley Stream, NY, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to five years old. Through the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program, we offer vital nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and nutritious foods that are essential for promoting good health. Our goal is to ensure that participants receive the nutrients often lacking in their diets, contributing to longer, healthier pregnancies and reducing the risk of premature births. WIC is accessible to pregnant women, infants, and children who meet our income guidelines, as well as those who receive benefits from programs like Food Stamps or Medicaid. To apply for support, please bring proof of identity, residency, income, and any relevant medical documentation to your appointment, and reach out to our office for more information. Our commitment is to provide the necessary resources so every child has the opportunity for a healthy start in life.
