I’m 16 and pregnant.. am I able to get WIC, and if I am how would I go about it?

Question

Is there any other assistance for pregnant women ?

Answer

My WIC office also has a maternity support department. I would ask them if they have something similar

Answer

Yea I was pregnant at 16 and got it. My mom might have had to sign for me though, can’t remember. She also got welfare and food stamps for me and once my baby was born until I turned 18 she got it for me and baby. I’m 34 now so that was long ago but I’m sure it’s still the same.

Answer

Contact you local health department and food stamp office

Answer

If you were to apply for medicaid and food stamps, I think you'd need to apply with parent/guardian info since you're underage, but its worth a try if you need it

Answer

Wic was fairly easy for me to get, just had to provide some documents and ID. Got the benefits and the card the same day.

Answer

Contact your local WIC office. They'll be able to get you in contact with all the local resources ❤️
