Monroe WIC Offering Assistance to Families in Monroe County

The Florida Department of Health in Monroe County’s WIC (Special Supplemental Food Program for Women Infants and Children) offers food/nutrition/breastfeeding assistance to low income pregnant women or families with infants or children under the age of 5 years who reside in Monroe County.  Receiving unemployment benefits do not automatically meet the financial qualifications required for pregnant women, infants and children to receive WIC benefits.  However, those in that demographic group who receive Medicaid and/or TANF benefits do meet income requirements for participation in WIC; no other financial data is required.  Without TANF and/or Medicaid participation, eligibility for the WIC program is based on gross household income.  (WIC is an equal opportunity provider). 

For more information or to apply:  Key West area—call 305-676-3852 and upper keys call 305-676-3933.  (During the COVID-19 Pandemic, all applications will be done by phone and necessary documents can be faxed or emailed, please do not come to the WIC office).
