About Women, Infants & Children (WIC) Supplemental Nutrition Program
The WIC (Women, Infants & Children) Supplemental Nutrition Program in San Leandro, CA, is dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as parents and caregivers of children under five. Our program offers vital nutrition education, individual counseling, and group classes designed to promote healthy eating habits. Participants receive personalized assistance with breastfeeding, including access to a Helpline, peer counselors, and breast pump rentals. WIC also helps families navigate healthcare by providing referrals for health insurance and essential medical services, as well as offering dental health classes, exams, and immunization reminders. Moreover, eligible families receive checks that can be used to purchase nutritious food items at local grocery stores, and summer checks specifically for fresh fruits and vegetables at Farmers Markets. We invite you to bring your children when enrolling to ensure they receive the support they need for a healthy start in life.
