Gateway CAP WIC Program - Camden County

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 checks for nutritious foods and baby formula. In addition, participants receive education on proper nutrition, health screenings, and referrals for additional services.

WIC provides breastfeeding support and counseling for prenatal and postpartum women. WIC also promotes compliance with the Childhood Immunization Schedule with its Immy Bear, which visits community fairs, classrooms, and other areas where children gather.
