本研究的目的是调查县和州级移民刑事定罪和融合政策与拉丁裔家庭参与美国最大的粮食不安全网计划之间的关联，补充营养援助计划（SNAP）。我们的结果，SNAP参与拉丁裔家庭的县级比例，以及县级协变量来自13年（2007-2019）的美国社区调查1年县文件（N = 675个县）。我们的曝光是县级庇护政策和国家级移民友好分数的存在，创建的基础上19移民刑事定罪和整合从城市研究所的国家移民政策资源获得的国家级政策.我们将样本中的每个县分为1）庇护政策+移民友好州，2）庇护政策+移民不友好州，3）无庇护政策+移民友好州，4）无庇护政策+移民不友好州。使用多变量广义线性模型，调整贫困水平和其他县的社会组成特征，我们发现，在有庇护政策的县，拉丁裔家庭的县级SNAP参与率高出1.1个百分点（B = 1.12，95%CI = 0.26-1.98），与没有保护区政策的县相比，在移民友好州实行庇护政策的县，（B = 1.59，95%CI = 0.33-2.84），与移民不友好州中没有庇护政策的县相比。当地和州的移民政策，即使与SNAP资格无关，也可能影响拉丁裔家庭的SNAP参与。缺乏庇护政策或有更多的刑事定罪和较少整合政策的司法管辖区应考虑采取有针对性的外展战略，以增加拉丁裔家庭的SNAP入学率。
The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between county- and state-level immigrant criminalizing and integrating policies and Latino household participation in the largest safety net program against food insecurity in the U.S., the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Our outcome, county-level proportion of SNAP-participating Latino households, and county-level covariates were obtained from the American Community Survey 1-year county files (N = 675 counties) for 13 years (2007–2019). Our exposures were county-level presence of sanctuary policies and a state-level immigrant friendliness score, created based on 19 immigrant criminalizing and integrating state-level policies obtained from the Urban Institute's State Immigration Policies Resource. We classified every county in the sample as 1)sanctuary policy + immigrant friendly state, 2) sanctuary policy + immigrant unfriendly state, 3) no sanctuary policy + immigrant friendly state, and 4) no sanctuary policy + immigrant unfriendly state. Using multivariable generalized linear models that adjusted for poverty levels and other social composition characteristics of counties, we found that county-level SNAP participation among Latino households was 1.1 percentage-point higher in counties with sanctuary policies (B = 1.12, 95%CI = 0.26–1.98), compared to counties with no sanctuary policies, and 1.6 percentage-point higher in counties with sanctuary policies in immigrant friendly states (B = 1.59, 95%CI = 0.33–2.84), compared to counties with no sanctuary policy in immigrant unfriendly states. Local and state immigration policy, even when unrelated to SNAP eligibility, may influence SNAP participation among Latino households. Jurisdictions which lack sanctuary policies or have more criminalizing and less integrating policies should consider adopting targeted outreach strategies to increase SNAP enrollment among Latino households.
