What Does WIC Provide? Foods for Infants (Birth-12 Months) The WIC Program strongly encourages and provides support for breastfeeding. For babies who are not fully breastfed, iron-fortified infant formula is available for the first year of life. The state contracts with one formula company to provide formula at a reduced price. At six month, infants may also receive infant cereal and infant fruits and vegetables. Infants that fully breastfeed, may also receive infant meats. Infants with specific medical diagnoses may receive a special formula. Foods for Women and Children Pregnant and postpartum women and children (under 5 years of age) participating in WIC receive food benefits for milk, cheese, eggs, cereals, peanut butter, dry beans/peas or canned beans/peas, and fruit or vegetable juices, fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grain choices to include breads, tortillas, brown rice and oatmeal. Women who exclusively breastfeed their babies may also receive extra food, including canned tuna fish. Special formulas or nutritional supplements are also available to participating women and children who have certain medical conditions. Sample Food Package for a child for one month: 3 gallons of milk 1 pound of cheese 1 dozen eggs 36 ounces of cereal 18 ounce jar of peanut butter, 16 ounce dry beans/peas or 4 cans beans/peas 2 bottles 64 ounce juice 2 pounds whole grains (breads, tortillas, brown rice or oatmeal) $8.00 fresh fruits and vegetables Effective 2016 English Food Guide Spanish Food Guide Arabic Food Guide Infant Formula Insert - WIC Food Guide
