To find out what all the requirements are to become a WIC participant, then view the details on how to apply for WIC benefits in your state. In most states to be eligible for WIC, you will need to meet categorical, residential, and income requirements and have a nutritionist or health physician determine if you and or your infant/child are a nutrition risk. If you are new to WIC and want to apply, then you will need to schedule an appointment with your local WIC office to see if you are eligible. This includes determining the WIC eligibility requirements, provide benefits, services and determining what foods WIC participants can purchase using their voucher/checks or in some cases, their EBT card, at WIC authorized food stores. Though federally funded, each state manages their own WIC program.

The WIC program aims to help low income and nutritional at-risk women, infants and children.
