Fathers can also bring their children to apply for WIC. You may apply for WIC if you are working or unemployed. Check the Income Guidelines Table to see if you are eligible for WIC. This website was created for women looking for WIC information and locations. We are also working towards adding other locations and services that may help out women.

The fact that a transaction can’t be suspended or cancelled without shutting down the WIC cards is unbelievably inconvenient. If the person ringing things up makes a mistake and then cancels things after ringing up items and swiping the card, it shuts off and my child has to go without the baby food for another Xamount of days because you have no customer service help line that is focused on fixing the card. If I have all of the information, I should be able to deactivate the card IF a cashier makes a mistake. It is not MY fault if they screw things up. If the swipe machine does not work, that is also out of my hands but will shut down the card. Things like THIS need to be fixed ASAP.
