SNAP Access & Food Security Survey

Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon

Purpose:

Help Tell Oregon's Food Security Story

For more than 20 years, Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon has worked alongside communities across the state to advance policies and programs that reduce hunger and improve food security for all Oregonians.

Recent changes to SNAP and rising food costs are affecting families in different ways, and we want to better understand what those experiences look like. Your story will help tell the rest of the story behind the numbers, providing Oregon lawmakers with a clearer picture of how food insecurity is impacting people and communities across our state.

This survey takes approximately 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be used to inform advocacy efforts and help shape policies that better support Oregonians experiencing food insecurity.

As a thank you for participating, you'll have the option to enter a drawing to win one of several $50 grocery gift cards.

Thank you for sharing your experience and helping us build a stronger, more food-secure Oregon.
