A Louisiana WIC applicant is automatically income eligible to apply for the program if currently enrolled in either the Louisiana Medicaid Program, or the Louisiana SNAP (Food Stamp) Program, or Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), or LA CHIP, or LA MOMS.

If not currently enrolled in at least one of the above programs, a family income screening will need to be completed. An individual may not participate in the LA WIC program at more than one site, or in more than one state, during the same month. To see if you are income eligible to apply for the Louisiana WIC Program, find your family size and compare your current gross household income (before deductions) to the income listed.

Please note, in the case of prenatal women, the fetus may be counted as part of the household. Any additional questions or concerns about income eligibility may be answered by calling 800-251-BABY or contacting your local WIC site.
