What is WIC?
WIC is a special supplemental food program that provides nutrition support, breastfeeding support, and referrals to other agencies. To apply for WIC one must be pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a child under the age of 5. The applicant must also have a nutritional risk and meet income guidelines. Current guidelines are set at 185% of the federal poverty guidelines.
WIC applicants can call the clinic in their community to set up an
appointment to enroll in the program. Once enrolled, participants will get WIC
benefits on a WIC EBT card that they can use at a WIC-approved grocery store.
Please call your local clinic to schedule an appointment. Proof of income,
identification, and proof of residency must accompany individuals at their
scheduled appointment. At the appointment, an applicant will receive nutrition
and breastfeeding support and learn about other services they can use to help
their family.
