The Harkin Institute for Public Policy & Citizen Engagement surveyed 500 Iowans in December 2019 to gather feedback on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and determine if Iowans favor or oppose changes to SNAP that may influence the purchase patterns and food choices of people using Food Assistance in Iowa.

The survey found that Iowans overwhelmingly support providing incentives for healthy eating, like providing SNAP recipients more money to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. Click here to access a summary of the results.
