OBJECTIVE
Little nutrition research has been conducted among families with unstable housing. The objective of this study was to examine the role of food stamps (i.e., Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; SNAP) in home food availability and dietary intake among WIC families who experienced unstable housing.
DESIGN AND SAMPLE
Cross-sectional study among vulnerable families. Low-income, multiethnic families with children participating in WIC (n = 54).
MEASURES
Dietary intake was assessed with 24-hr recalls. Home food availability was assessed with an adapted home food inventory for low-income, multiethnic families. Validation results from adapted home food inventory for these families are also reported.
RESULTS
SNAP households had more foods than non-SNAP households; few significant associations were observed between food availability and child dietary intake.
CONCLUSIONS
With few exceptions, the home food environment was not related to children's dietary intake among these vulnerable families. More research is needed on food access for families facing unstable housing.
目的
针对住房不稳定家庭开展的营养研究较少。本研究的目的是调查食品券（即补充营养援助计划；SNAP）在经历住房不稳定的妇女、婴儿和儿童营养补充计划（WIC）家庭的家庭食物供应和饮食摄入中的作用。
设计与样本
对弱势家庭进行横断面研究。参与WIC的有子女的低收入多民族家庭（n = 54）。
测量方法
通过24小时膳食回顾评估饮食摄入量。使用针对低收入多民族家庭改编的家庭食物清单评估家庭食物供应情况。还报告了这些家庭改编后的家庭食物清单的验证结果。
结果
接受SNAP补助的家庭比未接受补助的家庭拥有更多食物；食物供应与儿童饮食摄入量之间未观察到显著关联。
结论
除少数例外情况外，在这些弱势家庭中，家庭食物环境与儿童的饮食摄入量无关。对于面临住房不稳定的家庭，在食物获取方面还需要更多研究。
