Located in Austell, GA, the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Nutrition Program is dedicated to promoting the health and nutrition of families with young children and pregnant women. This vital federally-funded program assists those in need, providing essential food assistance for infants and children up to age five, as well as support for pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and those in the postpartum period. WIC serves families whose income is at or below 185 percent of the federal poverty level or who are enrolled in Medicaid, helping prevent nutritional deficiencies through special checks to purchase healthy foods from authorized vendors such as milk, eggs, and cereal. Additionally, WIC offers expert information on nutrition and health, breastfeeding support, and guidance in accessing necessary health care and community services, ensuring that families can thrive together.
