Abstract

ABSTRACTResearch exploring the attitudes and opinions of food pantry clients on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program is limited. The purpose of this study was to explore differences in perceptions of SNAP policies and sociodemographic variables between food pantry clients that were SNAP and non-SNAP participants. A survey was conducted with food pantry clients in the Midwest assessing sociodemographics, perceived benefits/experiences with SNAP participation, attitudes toward SNAP policy (e.g., restrictions), and household food security. Chi-square analyses and post hoc adjustments were conducted. Differences between SNAP participations and non-SNAP participants were found across sociodemographics, perceived benefits, and endorsement of SNAP policies.
