Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP)

SIPP is a nationally representative longitudinal survey that provides comprehensive information on the dynamics of income, employment, household composition, and government program participation. SIPP is also a leading source of data on economic well-being, family dynamics, education, wealth, health insurance, child care, and food security. The survey interviews individuals for several years and provides monthly data about changes in household and family composition and economic circumstances over time.
