WIC Food Benefits
Texas Health and Human Services Commission
Texas WIC provides healthy food benefits, nutrition counseling, breastfeeding support, and nutrition education to eligible women and families with young children.
How to get help
Start an application online or call 800-942-3678. A local WIC team member arranges an appointment and explains the information needed, which typically includes proof of address, benefit-program participation, income, and identification. Attend the appointment for final eligibility review.
Who this service helps
Texas residents who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or within six months after having a baby, and parents, step-parents, guardians, or foster parents applying for infants or children younger than 5. Income guidelines apply; Medicaid, SNAP, or TANF participation satisfies WIC income eligibility guidelines.
