Getting started with WIC is easier than you might think. Whether you’re pregnant, just had a baby, or caring for a child under age 5, Clinica Sierra Vista’s WIC program is here to help you make healthy living simple—and it all starts with one easy step.

Applying Is Simple

You can apply for WIC in the way that works best for you:

Online: Fill out a short request form at wic.clinicasierravista.org, and a WIC team member will call you to follow up.
By phone: Call (661) 862-5422 to talk directly with our staff.
In person: Walk into any WIC office—no appointment needed.

Once you’re enrolled, your WIC benefits will be loaded onto your California WIC Card that same day—so you can start shopping for healthy foods right away.

What to Expect

Our WIC team is friendly, welcoming, and ready to guide you through every step. You’ll get help understanding your benefits, tips for using your WIC card, and answers to any questions about feeding your family.

We offer support in English and Spanish, and appointments can often be done in person or by phone—whatever makes things easiest for you.

Do I Qualify for WIC?

WIC is a program that helps families with food and nutrition. Call us at (661) 862-5422 or send a message, and we’ll help you see if you qualify.

Here are some ways you might qualify:

You are pregnant
You are breastfeeding a baby who is less than one year old
You had a baby in the last six months
You have a child who is under the age of five
You experienced a loss of pregnancy or had a termination

You also need to think about your family’s income. Here are the monthly income limits for family sizes:

1 Person: $2,413
2 Persons: $3,261
3 Persons: $4,109
4 Persons: $4,957
5 Persons: $5,805
More than 5 Persons: Add $848 for each additional member

This income limit is based on 185% of the Federal Poverty Level, and these amounts will be effective from April 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026.

Also, if you’re pregnant, the baby counts as part of your family size when figuring out if you qualify.
