Displaced New Orleans Residents Pilot Study (DNORPS) (ICPSR 29523)

Released/updated on: 2011-03-24

Geographic coverage: United States, Louisiana, New Orleans

Time period: 2005-08-01--2006-11-01

The Displaced New Orleans Residents Pilot Study was designed to examine the current location, well-being, and plans of people who lived in the city of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina struck on August 29, 2005. The study is based on a representative sample of pre-Katrina dwellings in New Orleans. Fieldwork focused on tracking respondents wherever they currently resided, including back to New Orleans. Respondents were administered a short paper-and-pencil interview by mail, by telephone, or in person. The pilot study was fielded in the fall of 2006, approximately one year after Hurricane Katrina. The goal of DNORPS was to assess the feasibility of the study design and thereby to lay the groundwork for launching a major longitudinal study of displaced New Orleans residents.

ICPSR only holds the public data for the pilot study. The main study (DNORS) was carried out 2009-2010. These data are not yet publicly available, but for more information, visit the RAND Corporation website.

This dataset contains a state-level record of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) expansions adopted during and post the COVID-19 pandemic across all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. It documents the timing, scope, and implementation of major pandemic-related SNAP policies, including Emergency Allotments (EA), Pandemic-Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT), and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)-approved administrative waivers, between March 2020 and August 2023. Data were systematically extracted from the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) public database on COVID-19 SNAP waivers (unable to be accessed at time of publication) and harmonized through a structured coding protocol.
