Description

Lawrence J. Dyckman & Richard Cheston. Participation in the Food Stamp Program has dropped over the last few years. Because of concerns that states’ efforts to reduce their welfare caseloads may have diminished eligible children’s participation in the Food Stamp program, this report examines the reasons for the recent drop in Food Stamp participation, & any problems that households with eligible children have experienced in obtaining Food Stamp. This report analyzed the responses to a questionnaire sent to the 50 states & the D.C.; obtained data & reports on Food Stamp participation from the Food & Nutrition Service; & surveyed each of the Food & Nutrition Service's 7 offices, which oversee implementation of the Food Stamp program. Charts & tables.
