Abstract
ABSTRACT The Double Up Food Bucks (DUFB) Heartland project is a USDA Food Insecurity Nutrition Incentive funded program designed to incentivize the purchase of fruits and vegetables (FV) by Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) clients. This study examined the influence of DUFB Heartland on food security, FV intake, and health-related quality of life. Food-insecure SNAP participants experienced physically (p < .05, d = 0.26) or mentally (p < .001, d = 0.40) unhealthy days more often than those who were food secure. Food-insecure respondents reported more positive effects from DUFB Heartland compared to food-secure respondents (p < .01, V = 0.20).
