Economic Research Service
Title: Food Security Supplement to
the Current Population Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0536–0043.
Summary of Collection: The
Economic Research Service (ERS) will
be conducting an annual Food Security
Supplement to the Current Population
Survey (CPS–FSS). The mission of ERS
is to provide timely research and
analysis to public and private decision
makers on topics related to agriculture,
food, the environment, and rural
America. ERS has provided estimates
for the prevalence of food security
among households in the United States
for the last 30 years. These estimates
capture U.S. households’ consistent
access to enough food for an active,
healthy life for all members, meaning,
they are food secure. This survey
supplement is the official source of
information on food security in the
United States and is used by ERS to
report annually on the prevalence of
food security among the U.S.
population.
Need and Use of the Information: The
data collected by the CPS–FSS will be
used for monitoring the prevalence of
food security, food insecurity, and very
low food security within the U.S.
population as a whole and in selected
population subgroups; conducting
research on causes of food insecurity
and the role of Federal food and
nutrition programs in ameliorating food
insecurity; and continuing development
and improvement of methods for
measuring these conditions. Information
will be collected on food spending, use
of Federal and community food and
nutrition assistance programs,
difficulties in obtaining adequate food
during the previous 12 months and 30
days due to constrained resources, and
conditions that result from inadequate
access to food.
