Who's Eligible?

WIC serves Kansas residents who are:

• Pregnant
• Breastfeeding, up to baby's first birthday
• Non-breastfeeding mothers, up to six months after baby's birth
• Infants and children under five years old

WIC clients must meet WIC income guidelines and have a medical or nutritional need.

Many working people are eligible for WIC and don't realize it.

For your WIC appointment, you will need to bring:

Completed Diet Questionnaires
 

At the appointment there will be a brief review of foods you eat, medical history and current health status to determine the medical or nutritional need. If you or your child is found eligible for WIC benefits, the appointment will also include nutrition education.

WIC Approved Foods

Examples of WIC foods include milk, soymilk, whole grains, eggs, cereal, fruit juice, cheese, baby food, infant formula, fruits, vegetables, peanut butter, canned or dried beans/peas, and fish.
