ABSTRACT Focusing on food access, existing college studies find rates of low or very low food security to range from 10–75%, with little understanding of variation among undergraduate and graduate students. A greater understanding of food security including access and utilization for both undergraduate and graduate students will help address its adverse effects on the health and academic outcomes of students. We evaluate food security at a large midwestern university, identifying characteristics related to both access and utilization. This approach allows for the identification of solutions tailored to undergraduate and graduate students living on- and off-campus who lack food security.

ABSTRACT In 2020, after the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in widespread school closures and a consequent pause in school food programs (SFP), stakeholder groups soon found alternate methods for delivering meals and snacks to students. This paper examines the breadth of school food programming in Canada during the pandemic. SFPs collectively offered meals (breakfast was most frequent), food boxes, and gift cards and average weekly distributions were over 10,000 meals. In most cases, the programs provided enough food/coupons to feed multiple or all household members. Almost half the programs received funding from provincial/territorial governments and around two-thirds received charitable contributions.

ABSTRACT Forty-four percent of college students experience food insecurity. This systematic review describes the characteristics and outcomes of interventions and strategies that address college students with food insecurity to provide best practices for institutions seeking to implement interventions or strategies that aim to support students with food insecurity.. Three electronic databases were searched for peer-reviewed articles and gray literature concerning food aid interventions and strategies. Of the 271 articles identified, eight articles met eligibility criteria and were included. This review offers insight into interventions and strategies that improve nutrient intake, reduce food waste and food aid stigma, and offer long-term benefits or support.

ABSTRACT The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) provides meals to children during out-of-school time, such as emergency school closures. This study assessed the trends in participation and operations of Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) sponsors in Maryland from 2016 to 2020 and evaluated the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic from 2019 to 2020. The total number of summer meals served significantly increased from approximately 3 million meals in 2019 to over 9.5 million meals in 2020. The number of breakfasts, lunches, and operating days also significantly increased from 2019 to 2020, but there was no significant change in the number of sites.

ABSTRACT Food insecurity is widespread among US college students. We examined the impact of participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) on food security status among students at a large public university using a quasi-experimental study. Sequentially adjusted logistic regression models were used to assess the impact of SNAP participation on food insecurity. SNAP participants experienced a 63% decrease in food insecurity from baseline to six months (p < .05). Adjusted models found 89% (95% CI 0.25–0.98) lower odds of food insecurity among program participants. Strategies to increase SNAP use may decrease food insecurity and its associated consequences among college students.
食品不安全在美国大学生中普遍存在。我们采用准实验研究的方法，考察了参加补充营养援助计划(SNAP)对一所大型公立大学学生食品安全状况的影响。采用顺序调整logistic回归模型评估SNAP参与对粮食不安全的影响。从基线到六个月，SNAP参与者的粮食不安全状况降低了63% (p < 0.05)。调整后的模型发现，项目参与者中食品不安全的几率降低了89% (95% CI 0.25-0.98)。增加SNAP使用的策略可能会减少大学生的粮食不安全及其相关后果。

ABSTRACT Household food security in Vietnam remains tenuous. We surveyed 552 households to investigate household food insecurity (HFI) in rural districts in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. HFI prevalence was 34.4% and 48.4% in the last month and last year, respectively. Khmer households were twice as likely to experience HFI compared to their Kinh counterparts. The primary factors associated with HFI were weak livelihood assets including lower natural, financial, and human assets (being landless, low incomes), physical and social assets (poor market access, social networks), lower kitchen utensil scores, belonging to a minority and experiencing financial, agricultural, and extreme weather shocks.

ABSTRACT The objective was to determine the prevalence of household food insecurity (FI) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Secondary analysis was performed using the waves 1 to 3 of the 2020 COVID-19 High Frequency Phone Surveys in 13 LAC countries. The countries with the highest FI in the first wave were Honduras (60.3%), Peru (58.1%) and Ecuador (57.9%). Likewise, the countries with the greatest differences in the prevalence of FI between the first and last waves in percentage points (PP) were Peru (−29), Guatemala (−27.7) and Bolivia (−21.8). LAC countries face a great burden of FI.

ABSTRACT Food banks served a record of 60 million people in 2020, but little is known regarding sources and quality of foods distributed, especially with the COVID-19 pandemic’s widespread disruptions. This mixed-methods study examined changes in food bank sourcing in 2020 relative to prior years. Findings highlight food bank-led purchases and federal commodities were used to meet increased food needs. While the inventory of fresh produce decreased proportionally in 2020 versus 2019, it increased in overall poundage by over a million pounds (p < 0.01). These findings have implications for nutritional food ranking across and within food banks.

ABSTRACT This study explores food and housing insecurity among university students at a public Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) located in the U.S.-Mexico border region. Classification and regression trees were used to identify the principal factors leading to food or housing insecurity in a predominately Hispanic student population. An analysis of Hispanic university students is needed to better understand the challenges of the fastest growing group with the highest enrollment gain. Findings will inform decision makers and faculty in their efforts to address food and housing insecurity and enhance the responses necessary to better serve Hispanics and all students.

ABSTRACT This paper examined geographic patterns of changes in the density of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) applications at the zip code level in New Orleans, LA in the immediate aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic (March–May 2020), compared to pre-pandemic times (March–May 2019). All zip codes analyzed experienced increases in SNAP application density, ranging from 25% to 360%. While disadvantaged zip codes had higher SNAP application densities at baseline, they experienced a comparatively lower increase across time. Results highlight the staggering need for food assistance as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including in areas with historically low need.
