How Can I Get WIC?

Who is WIC for?

You may qualify for WIC if you:
  • Are pregnant, breastfeeding, just had a baby (or recent pregnancy loss); or
  • Have a child or care for a child under age 5; and
  • Have low-to-medium income or receive Medi-Cal, CalWORKs (TANF), or CalFresh (SNAP) benefits; and
  • Live in California.

Use this assessment to help you find out if you may be eligible for WIC benefits. Please be aware that only staff at your local WIC office can officially confirm that you qualify for WIC services.
