Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: Poverty-reduction efforts that seek to support households with children and enable healthy family functioning are vital to produce positive economic, health, developmental, and upward mobility outcomes. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is an effective poverty-reduction policy for individuals and families. This study investigated the non-nutritional effects that families experience when receiving SNAP benefits.
METHODS: We conducted a scoping review using the PRISMA Guidelines and strategic search terms across seven databases from 01 January 2008 to 01 February 2023 (n=2456). Data extraction involved two researchers performing title-abstract reviews. Full-text articles were assessed for eligibility (n=103). Forty articles were included for data retrieval.
RESULTS: SNAP positively impacts family health across the five categories of the Family Stress Model (Healthcare utilization for children and parents, Familial allocation of resources, Impact on child development and behavior, Mental health, and Abuse or neglect).
CONCLUSIONS: SNAP is a highly effective program with growing evidence that it positively impacts family health and alleviates poverty. Four priority policy actions are discussed to overcome the unintentional barriers for SNAP: distributing benefits more than once a month; increasing SNAP benefits for recipients; softening the abrupt end of benefits when wages increase; and coordinating SNAP eligibility and enrollment with other programs.

摘要：
目标：寻求支持有孩子的家庭并使家庭健康运作的减贫努力对于产生积极的经济，健康,发展,和向上流动的结果。补充营养援助计划（SNAP）是一项针对个人和家庭的有效减贫政策。这项研究调查了家庭在接受SNAP福利时所经历的非营养影响。
方法：从2008年1月1日至2023年2月1日，我们使用PRISMA指南和战略搜索词在七个数据库中进行了范围审查（n=2456）。数据提取涉及两名研究人员进行标题摘要评论。对全文文章进行了资格评估(n=103)。包括40篇文章进行数据检索。
结果：SNAP对家庭压力模型的五个类别（儿童和父母的医疗保健利用率，家庭资源分配，对儿童发展和行为的影响，心理健康,以及滥用或忽视)。
结论：SNAP是一项非常有效的计划，越来越多的证据表明它对家庭健康和减轻贫困产生了积极影响。讨论了四项优先政策行动，以克服SNAP的意外障碍：每月分配福利超过一次；增加接受者的SNAP福利；当工资增加时，减轻福利的突然终止；并与其他计划协调SNAP资格和注册。
