Eligibility

WIC is available for income-eligible pregnant and postpartum women, breastfeeding moms, and children under five (up to their fifth birthday). Dads, grandparents, foster parents, and anyone raising kids under five can receive benefits to support the kids in their care.

Postpartum women are eligible for up to six months after the end of their pregnancy. Breastfeeding moms are eligible to receive food benefits until their babies turn one. They can receive continued breastfeeding support throughout their journey. Please refer to our Breastfeeding Support Page for more information.

If you or your children receive Medicaid, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), you're already income-eligible for WIC.

Wondering if you could be eligible for WIC?    

This is not an application for WIC. You still need to visit your local WIC clinic to apply for WIC benefits. Please note, Montana WIC does not require proof of pregnancy.
