WIC, the Women, Infants, and Children supplemental food assistance program, is dedicated to promoting health and preventing nutrition-related health problems in Connecticut. Through nutrition education, breastfeeding information, and referrals, WIC aims to provide eligible families with the necessary tools to make healthy food choices. Participants also receive an eWIC card to purchase nutritious foods at grocery stores.
With three main office locations in Bristol, New Britain, and Torrington, WIC offers in-office appointments where applicants can demonstrate eligibility by providing necessary documentation and meeting with a nutritionist for assessment. The program also provides helpful resources such as the WIC Shopper app, which allows participants to scan barcodes, check their balance, and access the new WIC Food Guide for a comprehensive list of eligible items.
