Women, Infants & Children

Washington County WIC provides nutrition education, breastfeeding support, healthy food, health referrals and other services free of charge to Oregon families who qualify. WIC's goal is to help keep pregnant and breastfeeding women and children under age five healthy.

WIC is for all kinds of families: married and single parents, working or not working. If you're a father, mother, grandparent, foster parent or other legal guardian of a child under five, you can apply for WIC.

We have three locations, all located close to public transportation, in Hillsboro, Beaverton and Tigard.
