WIC is a Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. WIC serves pregnant women, women who have recently been pregnant, infants, and children up to their 5th birthday. Moms, dads, grandparents, foster parents, other caregivers, and guardians may apply for the children they are raising. Many working families, including military and migrant workers, as well as families that have private health insurance, are surprised to learn that they may qualify for WIC. WIC provides benefits for a variety of nutritious foods, nutrition education, support for breastfeeding, and referrals to other services in your community.
