Abstract

Using an embedded mixed-methods approach, this study assesses efforts to improve nutritional quality of inventory at food banks. All else equal, food banks with medium and high levels of nutrition-focused food banking strategy adoption had lower mean percentages of unhealthy inventory compared to those with none. Despite positive progress in the charitable food system as a whole, national key stakeholders identified several challenges, including cost and donor reliance, in continuing this work. Findings highlight the significant progress of food banks to adopt nutrition-focused strategies and distribute healthier foods and underscore the role these strategies may have in shaping inventory quality.

美国以营养为重点的食品银行的混合方法研究
采用嵌入式混合方法,本研究评估了改善食品银行库存营养质量的努力。在其他条件相同的情况下,与那些没有采取以营养为重点的食品银行策略的食品银行相比,采用中高水平营养食品银行策略的食品银行不健康库存的平均百分比更低。尽管整个慈善食品系统取得了积极进展,但国家主要利益相关者在继续开展这项工作时发现了一些挑战,包括成本和对捐助者的依赖。研究结果强调了粮食银行在采取以营养为重点的战略和分发更健康的食品方面取得的重大进展,并强调了这些战略在形成库存质量方面可能发挥的作用。
