About Women, Infants and Children (WIC)
The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Nutrition Program in Lithonia, GA, is dedicated to promoting the health and nutritional well-being of pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, postpartum women, and children from infancy to age five, including foster children. This federally-funded program supports families with incomes at or below 185 percent of the federal poverty level or those enrolled in Medicaid, focusing on those at risk for nutritional deficiencies. WIC provides essential services including nutrition education, health screenings, breastfeeding support, and referrals to additional health and social services. Participants also receive special checks to purchase healthy foods from WIC-authorized vendors, ensuring access to nutritious options. Eligibility is determined for low-income guardians providing care for children under five who are at nutritional risk. To learn more or to apply, prospective participants can utilize the WIC Eligibility Assessment available on Georgia’s WIC website, though only local offices can confirm eligibility and provide guidance on necessary documentation.
