WIC may be for you!
Are you pregnant or breastfeeding? Do you have a child under age five? Then WIC may be for you! It’s easy to apply and many working families qualify. If you already participate in SNAP, Medicaid, or TANF you automatically meet the WIC income guidelines!
WIC provides an eWIC card to buy healthy WIC foods and ideas for preparing healthy meals for your family.
WIC can help you reach your breastfeeding goals and offers support through education and peer counselors.
