WIC is the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, offered by the CT Department of Public Health and administered locally throughout Northeast Connecticut by Day Kimball Healthcare. WIC provides nutrition and breastfeeding education and assistance to women prenatally and up to one year after giving birth, and nutrition assistance to children up to age five.
WIC has gone electronic! Learn more about the e-WIC card >
To participate in the WIC program, you will be asked to provide proof of income, residency, proper identification, and recent medical information. Please be sure to bring your proof of income, proof of residency, identification and recent medical information (particularly height, weight and hemoglobin) to your first appointment.
Upon verification of eligibility, you will then visit with a WIC nutritionist to talk about your family's diet. The nutritionist will provide educational resources and tips to help you in providing good nutrition for both yourself and your children. Breastfeeding mothers will have the opportunity to meet with a certified lactation counselor.
At the end of the appointment the nutritionist will provide an e-WIC card for the purchase of approved foods at local grocery stores. View the CT WIC approved foods list >
