WIC Services

Infant feeding: Please refer to your local WIC staff or the MDHHS website if you are having difficulty finding infant formula. Many rumors on social media regarding free cans from suppliers are false. It is also critically important to remember that it is NEVER safe to make your own infant formula. We also still have many resources available for our breastfeeding mothers. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions about feeding your infant, we are here to help: 586-749-5173 ext. 232.

In need of WIC benefits during this time? You can contact our office about accessing WIC benefits. To see if you qualify, visit here. Our staff is available to answer any questions you may have. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

WIC is a cost-effective governmental health and nutrition education program that has shown a positive effect on pregnancy outcomes and on child growth and development. WIC serves Michigan residents who are:

  • Pregnant
  • Breastfeeding, for up to one year postpartum
  • Women who are not breastfeeding, for six months postpartum
  • Children under 5 years old
  • AND who meet WIC income guidelines

To be eligible on the basis of income, applicants' gross income (i.e. before taxes are withheld) must fall at or below 185 percent of the U.S. Poverty Income Guidelines. The guidelines for WIC are shown below.

What Happens in WIC?

WIC provides the following services to achieve positive health outcomes:

  • Nutrition counseling and education
  • Breastfeeding promotion and support
  • An Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card to purchase nutritious foods
  • Immunization screening and referrals
  • Health and social service referrals

WIC health professionals (registered dietitians and registered nurses) meet with each participant to:

  • Assess their diet and health history to identify nutritional needs and goals
  • Provide nutrition counseling
  • Determine the appropriate foods for that individual and explain how to get them at an authorized WIC retailer.

WIC Promotes Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding promotion and support is a key part of the Michigan WIC program and is available at no cost to you.
