| Abstract | Before the pandemic, millions of college students eligible for the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) did not access the benefit. This gap between eligibility for SNAP benefits and the use of those benefits is often a result of confusion around federal eligibility requirements. Even when eligibility guidelines were temporarily changed to include new exemptions during the pandemic to make it easier for more students to access SNAP, many had no idea they were now eligible to receive benefits. College staff around the country are working diligently to inform students of these changes and connect them to SNAP benefits. With support from the Michelson 20MM Foundation, The Hope Center partnered with Compton College to pilot a low-cost intervention that used text-based nudging to provide timely and relevant information about CalFresh, the California SNAP benefits program. In this brief, the authors share lessons from the pilot intervention at Compton College. In addition, they review findings from focus groups with other community college students throughout California and meetings with community organizations that help connect students to SNAP benefits.
