This report—part of an annual series—presents estimates of the percentage of eligible persons, by state, who participated in USDA's SNAP during an average month in fiscal year 2020 and in the two previous fiscal years.

Thus, this report presents rates only for all eligible persons during the pre-pandemic months of FY 2020.
