About The Study: Racial disparities in food insecurity were found among low-income households that do not participate in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) but not among those that do, suggesting that access to SNAP should be improved. These results also highlight the need to examine the structural and systemic racism in food systems and in access to food assistance that may contribute to disparities.
