Narrated story: Double Ups help food stamps go farther
Cornell researchers are part of an $8.08 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture through which they’ll assess and improve New York’s Double Up Food Bucks program, which is piloting the first Double Up online shopping option in the nation. The team will help the program expand to every county outside of New York City by 2027 and reach an estimated 200,000 SNAP recipients who do not currently have access to it.
