Postdoc and asst prof at USC Sociology. I study poverty, civic life, charitable food provision, nonprofits, & community organizations. BIG fan of hobbies and room temperature water.
Sharing an op-ed I penned about the importance of SNAP--not just for the program's beneficiaries, but for all us. In the meantime, we're putting a lot of pressure on local food pantries--and they will certainly need our support. (TLDR: give money to your local orgs)

Contributor: Interruption in SNAP benefit turns a chronic hunger problem into an acute crisis
Many food pantries are already operating at capacity and won't be able to close the gap when the federal shutdown cuts into aid.

Canceling funds for the LFS and LSPA doesn't just mean children go hungry--it screws over farmers, too. 80% of the buys are directly from farmers, and the programs have really built up trust in local agricultural supply chains. 1/2 www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
USDA cancels $1B in local food purchasing for schools, food banks

Caregiving responsibilities can cut young people off from peers and interrupt their emerging life story. And there's been little research or support directed at this group. That's starting to change.

Our recent paper, in ASR: While many sociologists assume that people turn to their “strong ties” when they need a confidant, people are actually as likely to avoid as to talk to their closest friends and family.
