WIC • Women, Infants & Children

Nourishing your family from the very start
The Women, Infants & Children Program (WIC) is a free resource offered by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission for pregnant women, new parents, and children under five. This program provides access to healthy food, nutrition guidance, breastfeeding support, and other services at no cost, ensuring children get the best start in life. With WIC, participants become part of a supportive community that helps them nurture their growing family in the healthiest way possible.

WIC Services

The Texas WIC Program focuses on several key goals to help keep families healthy. These goals include reducing complications during pregnancy and labor, increasing the number of breastfeeding mothers, lowering the rates of iron-deficiency anemia in mothers and children, and promoting the growth and development of young children. The program achieves these goals through various resources, including online classes, individual nutrition counseling, breastfeeding support, and online recipes. Learn more by visiting TexasWIC.org.

WIC-Approved Recipes

The Texas WIC Program offers an extensive online library of simple, healthy meal and snack recipes, including options that are safe for those with allergies.

Breastfeeding Support

Hands-on support to help more mothers start and continue breastfeeding. Once a month, we offer a free in-person breastfeeding class at our West Campus and Northwest WIC Campus.

Who WIC Is For, and When to Apply

You may qualify if you are:
  • A Texas resident
  • Pregnant
  • A new mother, breastfeeding or formula-feeding
  • A parent or guardian of a child under 5 years old
Proof of pregnancy isn't required, and you don't need to be enrolled in Medicaid.

You don't have to wait for baby to arrive!

While pregnant, WIC can provide nutritious foods, nutrition education, and referrals to other helpful programs.

After baby is born, WIC continues with breastfeeding support, including positioning, latch help, and breast pumps, plus supplemental formula when needed. Coverage lasts through pregnancy and up to a year after, and up to age five for children.
