Abstract:
This is the last of three AARP Public Policy Institute Spotlights analyzing SNAP participation among older adults. In this paper, we identify relationships between state SNAP administration policies and the SNAP participation rate among adults ages 60 and older who are eligible for SNAP. Our analysis finds that broad-based categorical eligibility (BBCE), Supplemental Security Income-Combined Application Project (SSI-CAP), and extended recertification periods were associated with higher SNAP participation among eligible older adults.
