Located in Astoria, NY, the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and children up to age five through essential food assistance and nutrition education. WIC provides vital nutritious foods that help fill dietary gaps, alongside breastfeeding support and referrals to health services. By fostering longer and healthier pregnancies, as well as reducing the likelihood of premature births, WIC plays a crucial role in the community's health. Eligibility for the program includes being a pregnant woman, postpartum mother, or a caretaker of infants and young children, with qualifications based on income guidelines or participation in other assistance programs like SNAP or Medicaid. We encourage eligible families to bring necessary documentation to their appointment and join us in nurturing healthier futures for mothers and children in our community.
