Hello everyone,

I have been alerted to a webinar on December 2nd from 3 – 4 PM EST that you might find interesting, entitled, “SNAP Matters: How Food Stamps Affect Health and Well-Being.”

It will feature current RSF Visiting Scholar Jim Ziliak, and former Visiting Scholar Tim Smeeding (Class of 2007-08).

From the website:

In this webinar, Bartfeld, Gundersen, Smeeding, and Ziliak will discuss findings from their new edited volume from Stanford University Press on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as Food Stamps. The presenters will discuss issues that will include changes in SNAP participation over time and the impact of SNAP on poverty, food security, consumption, health, and obesity.

Registration is required to participate; you may do so by navigating to this website.
