Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Edinburg, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of pregnant women, new mothers, and young children at risk for nutrition-related issues. Our program prioritizes education on healthy eating and provides vital resources like individual nutrition counseling, classes tailored for families, and comprehensive breastfeeding support, including free breast pumps. Each month, WIC participants receive benefits to purchase nutritious foods, such as iron-fortified infant formula, fruits, vegetables, and dairy. We also connect families with essential health and social services. Eligibility extends to pregnant and postpartum women, new mothers, and parents or guardians of children under five, with income guidelines set at or below 185 percent of the federal poverty level. Even those with jobs or private insurance can apply. To access WIC's invaluable services, interested families should visit our clinic to apply in person and can contact us to schedule an appointment.
