This study explores the relationship between food security status and SNAP enrollment among adults in one rural Appalachian county. This cross-sectional analysis represents one wave of a prospective cohort study. Data were collected via telephone October 2020-January 2021 to assess nutrition assistance use and food security status. There was a significant association between degree of food security and SNAP enrollment status (p <.01) with SNAP and SNAP-eligible participants experiencing higher rates of food insecurity in this persistent poverty county. Findings highlight the importance of designing tailored interventions to address food inequities among rural, low-income populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
