Do I qualify to apply for benefits at the WIC office in Gainesville Florida?

The Gainesville WIC office is where you need to go to apply for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). These facilities are located in different parts of the city, so you should be able to find one near you. However, remember that you need to meet various WIC eligibility requirements in order to enroll. For example, you need to be a Florida resident. You also need to meet the state’s WIC income eligibility guidelines. To meet these requirements, your family can only earn within 185 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL). However, you may already meet this requirement if you receive Medicaid, Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) or similar benefits.

Additionally, you and your children cannot enroll at a WIC office unless you have nutritional need. This means you have a history of pregnancy complications or health issues and need WIC benefits. You could also qualify if you do not maintain a healthy diet. Furthermore, you cannot receive WIC in Gainesville FL unless you are one of the following applicants:

• A child younger than five years of age
• An infant
• A pregnant woman
• A woman who recently gave birth
• A parent who is breastfeeding
