Located in Monument, CO, the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program delivers essential food assistance and nutrition education tailored for pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children under the age of 5. Our mission is to promote health and wellness in families by offering personalized nutrition consultations, valuable breastfeeding support, and financial resources to access healthy groceries. WIC not only provides nutritious food options but also connects families to vital services such as medical and dental care, health insurance, child care, and housing resources. We empower parents with knowledge on topics ranging from meal planning and healthy weight maintenance to managing picky eaters and budgeting for groceries. Eligibility is open to residents of Colorado who meet specific income guidelines, and those receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Food Stamps, or Medicaid are automatically qualified. If you have a foster child under 5, they are also eligible for support. To start your journey with WIC, we encourage you to reach out to your local WIC clinic today.
