Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Amarillo, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of pregnant women, new mothers, and young children at risk for nutrition-related challenges. Our mission is to empower families through comprehensive nutrition education, offering personalized counseling and interactive classes that cater to the needs of mothers and their children. We provide essential breastfeeding support, including free breast pumps, and valuable resources to help parents navigate the breastfeeding journey. Each month, WIC participants receive benefits for nutritious foods such as iron-fortified formulas, fresh fruits and vegetables, and dairy products, ensuring access to healthy options. We also connect families to additional health and social services for broader support. To qualify for WIC, families must meet income guidelines, and applicants can include pregnant women, new mothers, and guardians of children under five. We encourage prospective clients to visit our clinic for an initial assessment and apply for services in person, ensuring a welcoming environment where support and resources abound.
