SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
The Census Bureau’s Demonstration
of Administrative Records Improving
Surveys (DARIS) research project began
in 2006 during the redesign of the
Survey of Income and Program
Participation (SIPP). The purpose of
DARIS was to analyze direct and
indirect uses of administrative data to
enhance survey data. DARIS builds
upon ten years of administrative data
research that has demonstrated its value
to State and Federal Agencies. Projects
including the Medicaid Undercount
Project, Earned Income Participation
Rate Project, and research by the Chapin
Hall Center at the University of Chicago
have compared survey and program
data. The Census Bureau benefits from
these projects and the DARIS program
by improving survey frames, developing
model-based edits and allocations, and
evaluating data quality over time.
Collaborating agencies have benefited
through access to reports and
tabulations to better administer their
programs.
Both the Census Bureau and the Food
and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the
United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) would like to build on the
successes of the DARIS project by
encouraging State and District of
Columbia Agencies to share Nutrition
Assistance data with the Census Bureau.
Data sharing and analysis of linked files
are solely for statistical purposes, not for
enforcement purposes. The Nutrition
Assistance data are and will remain
confidential, whether in their original
form or when comingled or linked.
The Census Bureau will link the
Nutrition Assistance data with other
records at the Census Bureau, including
but not limited to data from the SIPP,
Current Population Survey, and the
American Community Survey. The
