WIC (Women, Infants & Children) in Colorado Springs, CO, is a vital service offered through El Paso County Public Health that provides essential food assistance and nutrition education to qualifying women and children. We empower mothers by supplying vouchers for nutritious foods such as milk, cheese, eggs, cereal, juice, and dried beans or peanut butter, ensuring they have access to healthy options. Our commitment to education covers key topics like breastfeeding, childhood obesity, child development, and infant feeding, with free lactation services available for all participants. Services include breastfeeding peer counselors, support groups, hospital-grade breast pumps, and expert lactation consultations, along with monthly breastfeeding classes in both English and Spanish. At WIC, we are dedicated to supporting families in their journey to optimal nutrition and health. Residents of El Paso County can apply for benefits and find support through our welcoming community resources.
