Every child deserves a healthy start — and WIC helps make that possible.

The WIC Program provides families with access to nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, and education that helps children grow strong from the very beginning.

WIC benefits can be used at local stores, and the WIC Shopper app makes keeping track of them simple.

If you are pregnant, a new mom, or have children under age 5, you may qualify.

Call (606) 298-7752 or visit martinhealthky.gov/wic to learn more.
