Women Infants and Children (WIC) Program
The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program is one of Gateway’s largest outreach programs, serving thousands of clients in Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland and Salem counties.
WIC is a supplemental nutrition program for eligible women, infants and children and provides eWIC benefits for nutritious foods and baby formula. In addition, participants receive education on proper nutrition, health screenings and referrals for additional services. During summer, WIC's Farmers Market Program provides each eligible WIC participant a total of $30 for the season to purchase fruits, vegetables and herbs from authorized farmers.
WIC provides breastfeeding support and counseling for prenatal and postpartum women.
