WIC eligibility

To be eligible to participate in WIC: 

• You must be a resident of Florida
• You must be nutritionally at risk – The assessment of nutritional risk is made by a trained health professional, usually at the local WIC office, at no cost to you.
• You must meet income eligibility – Your family’s income must not exceed 185% of the U.S. Poverty Income Guidelines.  If you are currently receiving Medicaid, Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA), or Food Stamps you automatically meet the income eligibility requirement regardless of actual gross.

Nutritious Foods and Support for families

Florida’s WIC Program provides vouchers for nutritious foods purchased at authorized stores. Clients purchase the foods at WIC-authorized retailers using a WIC EBT card.

The food package tailored for the individual client is loaded onto the EBT card at the WIC office during certification and nutrition education follow-up appointments.
