Utah WIC

Utah WIC starts through the local clinic by call or text. A nutrition appointment determines eligibility before the clinic issues a WIC card.

Who can apply

WIC serves qualifying pregnant, postpartum or breastfeeding people and children younger than five. Income, local residence and nutrition conditions apply; the clinic assesses certification periods.

What help is available

Supplemental foods and nutrition services rather than a complete food budget.

Documents to prepare

  • Identity for each applicant.
  • Address evidence.
  • Income or qualifying Medicaid, SNAP or FEP records.
