WIC provides supplemental, nutritious foods for low to moderate income pregnant,
breast feeding and postpartum women, infants and children up to age 5 who
are at nutrition risk. These foods are rich in protein, iron, calcium, and
vitamins A and C. These are key nutrients commonly lacking in the diets of the
WIC
target
population.
Participants exchange WIC food checks at approved retail grocery stores. In some cases, special formulas are distributed directly to the participant from the WIC local agency.
