Description

OVERVIEW: Provides healthy foods, nutrition education, breast feeding support and health care referrals to pregnant and postpartum women, nursing mothers, and infants and children up to age five.
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
If you have questions about how to count your income, or how to count your
family size if you are pregnant, call WIC. It is always best to call or make an
appointment at a WIC clinic near you to find out if you can get WIC.
The income numbers can change every year. Call WIC to be sure you have the
latest income numbers. Some people are able to get WIC because they are in other programs like:
Foster Care, Medical Assistance, SNAP, or TCA. If you are in one of these
programs, call your local WIC clinic to find out if you can get WIC.
