Description

Definition

For households that ever received food assistance, FOODASSISTSRC indicates whether the assistance was from a government or non-governmental organization.

FOODASSISTYN is a related variable that indicates whether the household ever received any food assistance.

The information in FOODASSISTSRC is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
