What is WIC?
The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) provides Federal grants to States for supplemental foods, health care referrals, and nutrition education for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to age five who are found to be at nutritional risk.
For those who qualify, WIC provides nutritious food at no cost, nutrition counseling, referrals for health care, breastfeeding support, and a list of grocery stores that will exchange WIC benefits for approved foods.
