Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in San Benito, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and young children who face nutritional challenges. Our mission is to provide essential nutrition education, individualized counseling, and breastfeeding support to empower mothers in nurturing their families. Participants benefit from a variety of services, including monthly vouchers for nutritious foods such as iron-fortified infant formula, fresh produce, and dairy products, ensuring access to healthy options. WIC also facilitates connections to vital health and social services, making it easier for families to thrive. Eligible applicants include pregnant women, new mothers, and caregivers of children under 5 years old, all of whom can receive support regardless of employment or insurance status. We invite residents of San Benito to visit us in person for an initial health screening and to learn how WIC can make a difference in their lives.
