  • Description
  • The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program is a Special Supplemental Food Program for pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women, infants and children up to the age of five. All applicants must be income eligible and have a medical or nutritional risk. Our mission is to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk. The St. Barnabas Hospital WIC Program has served our community since 1989. Our dedicated staff is made up of health care professionals and support personnel who represent the community we serve. Our program has expanded to include three permanent sites, serving close to 10,000 participants. The program provides checks for the purchase of nutritious foods at no cost to the participant. In addition, we provide free nutrition counseling/education, breastfeeding support, immunization screening and information on where to apply for free or low-cost health care or other needed services in the community.
