Supplemental Food Program<\/h3>\t\t\t

The Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program is a supplemental food program for pregnant, breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, infants and children up to age 5. \u00a0The purpose of the program is to provide supplemental foods and nutrition education to eligible persons. The program serves as an adjunct to quality healthcare through nutrition education and counseling, providing nutritious healthy foods, and screenings. The WIC Program is funded and administered by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).<\/p>\n

All families must meet\u00a0income eligibility guidelines<\/a>. WIC has higher income guidelines than SNAP (EBT, Food Stamps) or Medicaid, so even if you don\u2019t qualify for SNAP or Medicaid, you may still qualify for WIC.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>
