Caseload to be reduced The state W.I.C. office has told us that our caseload is not to exceed 300 participants. Presently we have 339 on the program. So, all the children put on the waiting list during the last few months will NOT be able to get on the program. Since the first week in October, all W.I.C. programs in Oregon have been using new application forms. The new forms have more strict risk factors. Only those, women, infants and children who have one of the risk factors on the application form will be certified for W.I.C. Depending on the risk factor, the length of time a participant can remain on W.I.C. will vary. For example, overweight children will be able to remain on for four certification periods, participants with a poor diet will be able to remain on the program for three certification periods.. Income guidelines are still being used. Income means gross income before deductions for income taxes, social security, insurance, etc. Income includes salary, social security, welfare payments, unemploy ment compensation, alimony or child support payments. If you have any questions about whether you or your child is eligible, contact Karen Gordon or Ruth Tewee.
