Foster kids and WIC

We didn't get told about it; someone I know who used to foster told me to ask about it. When I asked the caseworker on my first placement, she was noncommittal and didn't encourage anything. Then I asked my licensing worker and she said to call the WIC office, which I did. Turns out, I don't need to go through the caseworker at all for it (and most things other than what's actually coming from the state). I just made and appointment with the office closest to me and took the child and his paperwork with me.I don't know if it's different for different states, but here every foster child is eligible, although the amount you get is based on the stipend you receive.
