Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

WIC is the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). WIC is a federally funded nutrition program that provides nutrition education, breastfeeding support, healthy foods, and other services free of charge to Colorado families who qualify.

Eligibility

WIC is offered to all kinds of families: single and married parents, working and unemployed parents. If you are a father, mother, grandparent, foster parent or other legal guardian of a child under age 5, and you meet the qualifying criteria, you can apply for WIC.

Know someone who qualifies for WIC? Refer them here.

You can participate if you:

  • Live in Colorado
  • Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or postpartum woman, and/or have children up to age of 5 yrs.
  • Have family income less than WIC income Guidelines (shown below)
  • If you already receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Food Stamps (SNAP), or Medicaid, you are automatically eligible for WIC services.
  • Foster children under age 5 are automatically eligible for WIC.

WIC & Citizenship Status

WIC does not ask about citizenship status and WIC cannot track the citizenship status of its clients.

WIC Income Guidelines

Effective July 1, 2020 – June 30, 2021.

Enrollment

No application is necessary, simply call our Alamosa WIC office** to schedule a phone appointment or inquire about WIC. **Due to COVID-19 guidelines and restrictions, all Valley-Wide WIC offices are currently closed to the public, but patients can call the Alamosa WIC office for a phone appointment.

For your appointment you will need to bring proof of ID, proof of current income and current physical address,  and the individual/s participating in the program.
