Counseling services includes information on how employment will affect eligibility for SSI, SSDI and other federal, state, and local public benefits such as Medicaid, Medicare, subsidized housing, and food stamps. In addition, the WIC Supervisor provides daily supervision, technical assistance, and oversight of Work Incentives Counselors (WICs) who are in training to be certified by the SSA as a CWIC or CPWIC and WICs and Senior WICs who are certified as CWICs or CPWICs by an approved SSA program.

- Up until a WIC is fully certified as a CWIC or CPWIC, review and sign off on all technical reports including Benefits Summary & Analysis reports, Information & Referral letters, and Work Incentives Plans. After the WIC achieves full certification, conduct quarterly reviews of at least one technical report chosen at random.
- Provide day-to-day supervision including scheduling, approving time off, approval of time sheets, and providing feedback on performance including conducting formal annual performance reviews.
