Women, Infants and Children (WIC) is a program under the Community Bridges umbrella, offering a safe haven for families to nurture hope, comfort, and security, enabling women, infants, and children to flourish. WIC stands as a vital support system for a diverse range of caregivers including moms, dads, grandparents, and foster parents, providing nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and access to health services.
With a mission to enhance the health and well-being of low- to moderate-income families, WIC delivers nutritious foods, educational resources, and healthcare referrals to pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, infants, and children under the age of five. By catering to over six million individuals annually, WIC plays a critical role in fostering lifelong health for women and young children, contributing to the nation's nutrition safety net for half a century.
Emphasizing the promotion of healthy pregnancies, prevention of health complications, and advocacy for breastfeeding practices, WIC strives to optimize the growth and development of infants and young children. Through a dedicated team committed to offering personal experiences and professional guidance, WIC aims to empower families with the tools and knowledge essential for a vibrant and flourishing future.
