A new health policy brief<\/a> from Health Affairs<\/a><\/em>, titled \u201cCOVID-19 Pandemic-Era Nutrition Assistance: Impact And Sustainability,\u201d joins Health Affairs<\/em>\u2019 ongoing series of policy briefs on the social determinants of health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its authors, including Global Food Research Program faculty Shu Wen Ng<\/a> write that COVID-19 became \u201ca stress test\u201d for the ability of the United States to feed those in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Woman<\/a>Early in the pandemic, a record number of households, including nearly fourteen million children, reported not having enough to eat, with Black and Latinx households being more severely affected than their White and Asian counterparts. The existing federal nutrition programs, detailed in the brief, primarily flow through the Department of Agriculture (USDA). For programs such as the USDA\u2019s National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, the COVID-19 school closures made the normal distribution channels unavailable to recipients and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brief describes efforts undertaken by the federal government in the beginning of the pandemic, such as the Families First Coronavirus Response Act of 2020 and other legislation, which allowed the USDA to expand program eligibility, change how programs were accessed, and develop new programs offering novel experiments in nutritional assistance without compromising safe social distancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, a normal requirement of the USDA\u2019s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is an in-person enrollment interview. By replacing that requirement and allowing telephonic signatures for recertification, researchers estimate that some six million participants were able to be enrolled in the first few months of the pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brief also describes some of the innovative temporary federal programs, such as the Farmers to Families Food Box Program, that were made possible with discretionary USDA funding, as well as complementary efforts by states, localities, tribes, and the private sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Congress and the Biden administration prepare for the reauthorization of the Farm Bill in 2023, the authors recommend that many of the expansions, flexibilities, and new programming developed in response to the pandemic be allowed to continue. They note that these changes could help address the structural forces that create food insecurity. In addition, as policy makers also consider the next Child Nutrition Reauthorization, the authors suggest restoring and building on the 2010 federal nutrition standards and working to explore schools\u2019 expanded role in providing high-quality food year-round to students and families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
