Abstract
Young families with least experienced parents (children 0-2) and more experienced parents (children 3-5) are compared on family demographics and food security of children among Food Stamp and WIC participants. Children of a never married, least experienced parent that uses FS exhibit the greatest degree of food insecurity. Children of a more experienced parent not receiving food stamps with less than high school diploma generally have the most hunger.
