18 The Recession and Food Security November, 2010 The Effect of the Recession on Child Well-Being in child poverty rates are, for the most part, the states in which SNAP enrollment has increased the most. 79 In 19 states, 25 percent or more of all children were enrolled in SNAP at some point during 2009. This paper synthesizes evidence of the effects of recession on child well-being. It examines four domains â health, food security, housing stability, and maltreatment â and reviews the relationship of each to the well-being of children during recessions.
There's this somewhat counter-intuitive idea that economic downturns are good for your health. You might expect the privation and malnutrition inherent in such times would take a toll. But during the Great Depression, mortality rates fell. And since that time, the idea that recessions are a net-positive for health has only grown. But a new study in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health questions that idea. The researchers examined mortality rates from 114 U.S. cities in 36 states between 1929 and 1937 along with data on bank suspensions, which were used as an indicator of the impact of the financial crisis in the individual states.
