The Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) in Melrose, MA, is dedicated to improving the health and nutrition of low to medium-income families, specifically targeting women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have recently given birth, and children under five, including foster children. As a federally-funded program, WIC offers vital services such as nutrition education, access to healthy supplemental foods, and referrals to essential healthcare and community resources. Participants receive a WIC card to purchase a variety of nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, milk, and infant formula at local grocery stores and pharmacies. Additionally, WIC promotes healthy eating through initiatives like the Good Food Project, which provides weekly tips on meal planning, smart shopping, and cooking demonstrations. Our compassionate approach is designed to ensure that families have the support they need to nurture their health and well-being. For convenience and safety, all appointments are conducted by phone, and applications can be easily completed online.
