Study Summary

Food pantries face many challenges, including recruitment and training of staff/volunteers, communications with staff/volunteers and clients, providing client choice, and emergency preparedness. The investigators will develop, implement, and evaluate the Support Application for Food Pantries (SAFPAS), a mobile application to address these concerns under normal and emergency operations, and assess its impact on 20 Baltimore food pantries, and on the healthiness of foods received by 360 food pantry clients using a randomized controlled trial design. If successful, the tested and refined app will support local food assistance programs throughout the United States.

Primary Outcome

Food Assessment Scoring Tool (FAST)(91) scores of client bags from pantries will be captured by the FAST scoring tool at baseline and post-treatment in a sample of 360 client bags (18 clients customers/pantry in 10 intervention and 10 control pantries, at baseline). Scores can range from 0-100 and are calculated based on the total weight and healthfulness of foods and beverages from 13 categories.
