WIC is the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. This public health program is designed to improve health outcomes and influence lifetime nutrition and health behaviors in targeted, at-risk populations. Nutrition education is the cornerstone of the WIC Program.
Please use our Eligibility Screening Tool to check to see if you may qualify for WIC.(This is not an application to WIC. You still need to visit your local WIC clinic to apply for WIC benefits.)

UPDATED: Submit a Food For Approval
The Alaska WIC Program is preparing to implement eWIC. We will review all WIC eligible food products that are distributed in Alaska for addition to our eWIC Approved Foods List (also known as "APL"). We are now accepting submissions for new or changed food products. The current Allowed Foods booklet listed above will remain in effect until we transition to eWIC in 2019.
To submit a new food for review, please email the following REQUIRED information to wic@alaska.gov. Incomplete submissions will not be processed.

- Food/Product Name
- Package Size

*If images are unclear or unavailable, a complete list of ingredients is required.
For questions, please contact the WIC Vendor Management Unit at (907) 465-3100 or email wic@alaska.gov.
