About The Study: This cross-sectional study builds on prior evidence by documenting intersectional disparities in food insecurity persistent over 23 years despite multiple intervening policy and macroeconomic changes. As in a prior cross-sectional study, racial disparities were smaller among Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)-participating households than nonparticipating households.
