Women, Infants, Children (WIC)

Women, Infants, Children (WIC) in Whitestone, NY is dedicated to enhancing 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 provide vital food assistance, including supplemental food vouchers for nutritious options and infant formula, while offering tailored nutrition education from our trained staff. Our lactation consultants are here to provide essential breastfeeding support and guidance. We also promote a healthy lifestyle through our engaging 'Fit WIC' initiatives, which encourage physical activity and empower families with food demonstrations and resources to foster healthy habits and combat obesity. WIC is committed to ensuring that every participant has access to the resources they need for a healthier future.
