Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC)

The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Waco, TX is dedicated to enhancing the health and nutrition of pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, along with infants and children at risk for nutrition-related illnesses. WIC provides a comprehensive range of services, including individualized nutrition education and group classes tailored for families, as well as vital breastfeeding support such as instruction and access to breast pumps at no cost. Participants receive monthly benefits to purchase nutritious foods like iron-fortified formulas, cereals, fruits, vegetables, milk, and more. Our program also connects families with essential health and social services while focusing on education for parents, guardians, and caregivers to ensure optimal nutrition for children under five years old. Eligibility requires meeting specific income guidelines and demonstrating nutritional risk, with applications available in person. WIC welcomes all who can benefit from our services, striving for healthier futures in our community.
