New income guidelines to allow more Alabamians to qualify for WIC

The Alabama Department of Public Health announced on Tuesday that under new federal poverty benchmarks, more Alabamians may qualify for the Special Supplemental Program for Women, Infants, and Children. The federal supplemental nutrition program, commonly known as WIC, is open to women who are pregnant, have had a child in the past six months, are currently breastfeeding, or are the parent or guardian of a child up to five years old.

WIC is open to participants with incomes up to 185 percent of the federal poverty level, with more Alabamian's eligible effective immediately under the federal government's new 2026 levels.

“WIC is here to help women, infants, and children in Alabama improve their overall health by providing nutritious foods, nutrition education, and breastfeeding support,” said Alabama WIC Coordinator Pam Galloway in a written statement on Tuesday.
