Abstract

ABSTRACT While California has the biggest number of SNAP recipients in the nation, participation rates are far lower than the average national participation rates. This study shows that California presents a playbook of how SNAP participation rates are suppressed due to a unique combination of factors including, the high administrative cost per case, obstacles facing senior citizens, the enduring legacy of the negative cultural and political sentiments toward immigrants and welfare recipients, as well as the application of restrictive SNAP policies such as fingerprinting SNAP applicants and banning convicted drug felons from participation.

抑制CalFresh参与率的国家政策效应

虽然加州是全国SNAP受助人数最多的州，但其参与率远低于全国平均参与率。这项研究表明，由于一系列独特的因素，加州展示了SNAP参与率是如何被抑制的，这些因素包括:每宗案件的高行政成本、老年人面临的障碍、对移民和福利接受者的负面文化和政治情绪的持久遗产，以及限制性SNAP政策的应用，如指纹识别SNAP申请人和禁止被定罪的毒品重罪犯参与。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
