dc.description.abstractThe goal of the paper is to advise state government and other partner organizations on ways to enhance statewide accessibility to healthy foods by 1) increasing the number of food vendors that accept Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) benefits and 2) maximizing opportunities for WIC- and SNAP-authorized food vendors to provide and influence purchases of healthier foods as identified in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Such efforts will improve food access for those on food assistance and increase access to nutritious food for the entire community. Farmers, retailers, and local economies will benefit from the additional dollars spent by those receiving nutrition assistance.
