Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in El Paso, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of infants, children, and women during critical stages of motherhood, including pregnancy, postpartum, and breastfeeding. Our mission centers around empowering families with vital nutrition education, ensuring that mothers receive personalized counseling and engaging classes tailored for both adults and children. We are committed to supporting breastfeeding moms by providing access to lactation guidance and free-use breast pumps, as well as educating on the benefits of breastfeeding. WIC also helps families by supplying nutritious food benefits each month at local grocery stores, which include iron-fortified infant formula, vitamin-rich juices, milk, and more. We connect clients to essential health and social services, ensuring they receive comprehensive support. Our program welcomes pregnant and postpartum women, as well as parents or guardians of children under five who meet our income criteria. Participation in WIC is open to those living in Texas who face nutritional risks, even if they have jobs or health insurance.
