WIC is The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. WIC does not ask or keep information about visa status or citizenship. All responses are kept confidential.
WIC gives you resources, knowledge, and tools to help you and support your family. It’s free for moms, dads, grandparents, foster parents and all Colorado families who qualify. Whether you’re pregnant, already a mom or raising a child younger than 5, you can get the right personalized support for you and your family.
WIC’s goal is to help keep pregnant and breastfeeding women and children younger than age 5 healthy by providing free services including healthy foods, breastfeeding support, nutrition education, and referrals to care beyond WIC.
Qualifying for WIC
To qualify for WIC, you must meet income eligibility, live in Colorado, and be a:
- Pregnant woman.
- Mom breastfeeding a baby under 1 year of age.
- New mom who had a baby or was pregnant in the past 6 months.
- Baby.
- Child younger than 5 years.
Income Eligibility
WIC is open to many incomes including working and non-working families. If you are on Medicaid, TANF, SNAP or FDPIR, you are automatically income eligible. If you do not qualify for these programs, you may still qualify for WIC by meeting the income guidelines for your household.
Your household’s gross income (the amount of money you earn before anything is taken out for taxes or other deductions), must be at or below the amounts shown in the table below. If your income is slightly above the guidelines, contact a WIC office near you to discuss your potential eligibility.
