Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Harlingen, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of women, infants, and young children who may be at risk for nutrition-related issues. With a strong emphasis on education, WIC provides personalized nutrition counseling, engaging classes for clients, and tailored support for families. Breastfeeding support is a cornerstone of our services, offering encouragement, instruction, and even free breast pumps to ensure mothers have the resources they need. Each month, participants receive benefits to help purchase nutritious foods essential for healthy growth, including iron-fortified infant formula, fresh fruits, vegetables, milk, and more. WIC also connects families with additional health and social services for comprehensive support. Eligible participants include pregnant women, new mothers, guardians of children under five, and those meeting specific income guidelines. Even if you have a job or private health insurance, you are encouraged to apply. We welcome you to visit our clinic in-person to begin your journey towards better nutrition and health for you and your children.
