Many working families qualify. Individuals who participate in other programs, such as SNAP (food stamps), Medicaid, and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), may automatically be income-eligible for the WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) program.
To be eligible for WIC, a person must meet the following requirements:
- Be a pregnant, breastfeeding (up to one year postpartum) or non-breastfeeding (up to six months postpartum) woman; an infant; or child up to five years of age.
- Be income-eligible (see below).
