Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Tyler, TX, is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of women, infants, and young children who are at risk of nutrition-related issues. With a strong focus on educating parents about healthy dietary choices, WIC offers individual nutrition counseling and engaging classes tailored for families, including nutrition classes for children. Our program provides essential breastfeeding support, offering guidance, encouragement, and even breast pumps at no cost to help mothers succeed. Each month, participants receive benefits to purchase nutritious foods, such as iron-fortified formula, cereals, fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and more. WIC also connects families to various health and social services to ensure comprehensive support. Eligible participants include pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and guardians of children under five, meeting specific income and nutritional risk criteria. Serving Tyler and surrounding communities, WIC is here to empower families with the resources and education for healthier futures.
