California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a federally funded nutrition program available at no cost to eligible low income pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women and children up to age 5. The goal of the WIC program is to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at risk by proving nutritious foods to supplement diets, nutrition education, breastfeeding support, referrals to other health care and social services as needed while empowering families in building a healthy future through their local WIC clinic.
