Who We Are

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (also known as WIC) was developed to improve the health of pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women as well as infants and children (under 5 years) through better nutrition and access to health care. 

WIC provides:

  • screening and referrals to other health, welfare, and social service agencies
  • nutrition education, breastfeeding promotion, and support
  • supplemental nutritious foods 

To be eligible for the WIC Program, applicants must meet categorical, residential, income, and nutrition risk requirements.  To apply, you will need to show proof of income, identity, and Virginia residency.  If you are eligible, there is no cost for this service. 

Please note that not all programs are available in all health department locations.
