Housing costs and food purchasing characteristics
Housing costs account for a significant proportion of low-income households' budgets, limiting the amount of money left for food purchases. We aimed to assess 1) the association of area- and household-level housing costs with household-level food purchasing characteristics and 2) explore the moderating effect of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participation and SNAP purchasing power in these associations. Household-level data com…
The impact of state safety net policies on perinatal birth outcomes by maternal race
The combination of state safety-net programs may imply important roles in reducing the prevalence of low birthweight and preterm birth
Impact of county and state immigration policies on immigrant household enrollment in the supplemental nutrition assistance program
Many at high risk of food insecurity - including immigrants and citizens in households with immigrants - are eligible for SNAP but under-enroll. Policies that welcome and safeguard immigrants could reduce under enrollment
Participatory Systems Thinking to Elucidate Drivers of Food Access and Diet Disparities among Minoritized Urban Populations
The purpose of this study was to use participatory systems thinking to develop a dynamic conceptual framework of racial/ethnic and other intersecting disparities (e.g., income) in food access and diet in Philadelphia and to identify policy levers to address these disparities. We conducted three group model building workshops, each consisting of a series of scripted activities. Key artifacts or outputs included qualitative system maps, or causal l…

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issues detainer requests to local law enforcement agencies to hold detainees suspected of being undocumented immigrants until they can be transferred into ICE custody. We examined the association between area-level detainer requests and self-rated health among Latine adults. We linked health data from Latine adults included in the 2017-2020 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (n = 69,386) to d…
