520 "For many Americans who live at or below the poverty
threshold, access to healthy foods at a reasonable price
is a challenge that often places a strain on already
limited resources and may compel them to make food choices
that are contrary to current nutritional guidance. To help
alleviate this problem, the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) administers a number of nutrition assistance
programs designed to improve access to healthy foods for
low-income individuals and households. The largest of
these programs is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP), formerly called the Food Stamp Program,
which today serves more than 46 million Americans with a
program cost in excess of $75 billion annually. The goals
of SNAP include raising the level of nutrition among low-
income households and maintaining adequate levels of
nutrition by increasing the food purchasing power of low-
income families. In response to questions about whether
there are different ways to define the adequacy of SNAP
allotments consistent with the program goals of improving
food security and access to a healthy diet, USDA's Food
and Nutrition Service (FNS) asked the Institute of
Medicine (IOM) to conduct a study to examine the
feasibility of defining the adequacy of SNAP allotments,
specifically: the feasibility of establishing an objective,
evidence-based, science-driven definition of the adequacy
of SNAP allotments consistent with the program goals of
improving food security and access to a healthy diet, as
well as other relevant dimensions of adequacy; and data
and analyses needed to support an evidence-based
assessment of the adequacy of SNAP allotments.
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Examining the
Evidence to Define Benefit Adequacy reviews the current
evidence, including the peer-reviewed published literature
and peer-reviewed government reports. Although not given
equal weight with peer-reviewed publications, some non-
peer-reviewed publications from nongovernmental
organizations and stakeholder groups also were considered
because they provided additional insight into the
behavioral aspects of participation in nutrition
assistance programs. In addition to its evidence review,
the committee held a data gathering workshop that tapped a
range of expertise relevant to its task."--Publisher's
