Evaluation of Alternatives to Improve Elderly Access to SNAP

The purpose of the study is to gather direct input from elders 60+ about their awareness of SNAP, perceptions of the program, and experiences applying for and receiving SNAP benefits. This study will provide FNS with a better understanding of the barriers to serving elderly populations in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The Study is intended to increase access to SNAP among the elderly population in the selected States. This help us to interpret the effects or lack thereof observed in the Study, draw lessons on how aspects of the interventions may be improved, and assess whether the interventions, if implemented in other locations or contexts, might yield similar outcomes.
