Low-Income Women's Experiences with Food Programs … and Food-Related Hardships
http://www.ers.usda.gov/Publications/CCR57/CCR57.pdf
This study examines the economic coping strategies of low-income families using data collected in 2006-2009 with 35 low-income women residing in the Detroit metro area. Finds that rising food prices forced cutbacks in purchase of basic foods and almost half reported running out of food sometime during the year. Also discusses the role of the Food Stamp Program, now known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. From the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
