Empirical Bayes Shrinkage Estimates of State Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Participation Rates in 2006-2008 for All Eligible People and the Working Poor.

This report estimates states’ need for the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) and the program’s effectiveness from 2006 to 2008. The estimated numbers of people eligible for SNAP measure the need for the program. The estimated SNAP participation rates measure, state by state, the program’s performance in reaching its target population. In addition, the report derived estimates of participation rates for the working poor.
