Summary

The Veggie Vouchers pilot intervention aimed to increase awareness and utilization of an existing SNAP F\&V incentive program in South Carolina for families with food insecurity. Social determinants of health screenings were leveraged in a pediatric clinic to identify eligible families and provide information about this program. A free trial was then offered, with the long-term goal of increasing program use after the free trial ended. The primary aim was feasibility and acceptability of the Veggie Vouchers intervention among pediatricians and families.

Veggie Vouchers pilot

This intervention aims to increase awareness and use of a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) fruit and vegetable incentive program in South Carolina among families with young children experiencing food insecurity. To do so, brief education about this SNAP program is delivered by pediatricians to caregivers during well-child visits. Subsequently, caregivers are given 3 free produce boxes as a free trial of this program to incentivize first time use.
