Details from public sources — hours and walk-in policies vary by clinic, so call before visiting.

Before you go: quick prep

  1. Call first — certifications are by appointment; mention if you're pregnant or applying for an infant (priority scheduling).
  2. Bring four things: photo ID, proof of address, proof of income or your Medicaid/SNAP/TANF card, and the children applying.
  3. Expect 30-60 minutes: paperwork, a free health check (height, weight, iron), and in most states the eWIC card issued the same day.
  4. Income near the line? A pregnancy adds a household member, and Medicaid enrollment qualifies you automatically — check before ruling yourself out.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an appointment at Woodbine Public Health Center?

WIC certifications are by appointment at nearly all clinics — call (615) 862-7940 to book. Pregnant women and infants get priority scheduling (federal rules cap their wait at 10 days).

What should I bring to apply?

Four things: photo ID, proof of address, proof of income (recent pay stubs — or your Medicaid, SNAP or TANF card, which counts by itself), and the children applying. Full walkthrough in our application guide.

What are the income limits right now?

For July 2026-June 2027: $40,034/year for a household of 2, $50,542 for 3, $61,050 for 4 (gross income, 185% of poverty). A pregnancy counts as at least one extra household member — and Medicaid, SNAP or TANF enrollment qualifies you automatically.

Can fathers or grandparents bring the kids?

Yes — any parent or legal caregiver can apply for and manage WIC benefits for an eligible child. WIC is not limited to mothers.
