This study examines Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participation dynamics between October 2008 and December 2012. In particular, it describes patterns of SNAP entry, length of time on the program, and re-entry for policy-relevant subgroups, and discusses how these patterns have changed over time. This work was conducted in conjunction with an analysis presented on the determinants of SNAP participation (also between October 2008 and December 2012).
