The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly
called the Food Stamp Program) plays a vital role in the social
safety net in the United States, providing almost $72 billion in
benefits in 2011. An important measure of SNAP's effectiveness is
the extent to which the program reduces poverty. Evaluations of
antipoverty effect of safety net programs often focus on the rate
of poverty. However, the poverty rate reflects only one aspect of
the antipoverty effect of a safety net program, whether or not
adding program benefits to a family's resources lifts them above
the poverty threshold. This book examines SNAP's role in poverty
reduction with a focus on increased food security.
