Women Infants & Children (WIC) Program

WIC is a program where families like yours can access healthy food and a lot more! WIC is for pregnant women, new and breastfeeding moms, and children under five (5) years of age.

WIC Referral Form

​Please use the link above to complete and submit a WIC referral form for WIC program services. This referral form may be completed by individuals/families or by providers/community service organizations.

Eligibility

Eligibility depends on your household size and income. Review the WIC Eligibility Income Guidelines.

Fathers, grandparents, and other caregivers of children under the age of five (5) years may also sign children up for WIC.  Foster children under the age of five (5) years and foster teens who are pregnant are eligible for WIC. If you or your family member are on Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), or Basic Food you may be eligible for WIC too. Many working families and military  families are eligible for WIC.

Getting WIC will not affect your immigration status.

How to Apply

It's easy to apply. Our WIC staff will even take care of the paperwork! As soon as you know you're pregnant, give us a call (at 360-378-4474) to set up an appointment or use this form to submit a referral. Your first appointment should take 30-45 minutes. Please be sure to bring personal identification, your proof of residency in San Juan County, and proof of income. You will get your eWIC card  at the end of your first appointment.
