WIC offers a variety of nutritious foods that can save families hundreds on their food budget. WIC also helps families connect with other valuable programs and services in the community.
All families are encouraged to call. This program services both low and moderate income families. Income eligibility for WIC depends on the number of people in the family and total gross income for the household. For example, through June 2007, a family of four with an average income just over $3,084 per month or $37,000 per year would qualify. Call for more information!
