Description
Vivienne Hazzard and six co-authors interview parents in 2024 about what helps and hinders using food aid. Forty parents from a Minnesota family cohort, most of them mothers and parents of color, spanned every level of food security from secure to very low. Their accounts cut across federal programs, pantries, schools, and clinics.
Six themes recurred: comfort in asking for help, routine screening for need, outreach and referrals, whether programs actually meet the need, distance and delivery, and whether the foods given are acceptable. Each theme cut both ways, as barrier and as lever. The parents' own recommendations close the study.
