How WIC helps
Women on the WIC program eat better, have healthier babies and receive earlier prenatal care.
Infants born to WIC mothers weigh more and grow and develop better.
Children on WIC eat foods with more iron and vitamin C, visit their doctors more regularly and receive their shots on time.
How long you can get WIC
Pregnant women can get WIC throughout pregnancy, plus 2 months after delivery.
Breastfeeding women can get WIC for up to 1 year after delivery.
Women who have just given birth but are not breastfeeding can get WIC until 6 months after delivery.
Children are evaluated every 6 months for continued eligibility and can get WIC until 5 years of age.
