Summary

The head of a military department can give a WIC office free space on a base if the WIC office asks. That can happen only when four things are true: the office will serve only people assigned to that base (service members, DoD civilian workers there, or their dependents); there is available space; it will not interfere with the base’s mission; and base security allows a non‑government group on site. "Services" means things like lighting, heating, cooling, and electricity. A "WIC office" means a local agency as defined in subsection (b)(6) of section 17 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 (42 U.S.C. 1786).
