This report investigates SNAP caseload dynamics from 2004 to 2006. It describes individuals' patterns of participation and explores reasons for entering and leaving SNAP, how long participants receive SNAP benefits, and whether they return to the program after exiting. It also examines whether participation patterns in the mid-2000s differed from those of earlier periods.
