Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Brownsville, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of mothers and their young children who are at risk for nutrition-related health issues. Our mission is to empower families through comprehensive nutrition education, guiding mothers on the best dietary practices for their infants, toddlers, and themselves. We offer personalized nutrition counseling, interactive classes for all ages, and extensive breastfeeding support, including free breast pumps for breastfeeding mothers. Each month, eligible participants receive benefits that can be redeemed for nutritious food options like iron-fortified infant formula, whole grains, fresh produce, and dairy, ensuring that families have access to essential nutrition. WIC is committed to connecting clients with broader health and social services to further support their well-being. We welcome pregnant women, new mothers, and caregivers of children under five who meet our income guidelines to apply in person at our local clinic, where our team will guide you through the process with care and understanding.
