SIPP Survey Participant Brochures

These brochures show some of the ways responses to the Survey of Income and Program and Participation are used to measure America and inform important policy decisions.  Brochures are available in both English and Spanish. 

Why Measure Families with Children?

The children of today are the leaders of tomorrow. However, they are also the most vulnerable population group in the country. Therefore, measuring and staying informed about the well-being of the nation’s children is vital to ensuring the future success of the nation as a whole.

In order for the country to know what is needed—how people like you are doing and where people in your community need help– we conduct surveys like the SIPP to collect this information.

Because our country is so populous (over 300 million people), we can only survey a scientific sample of the whole population. Thus, your answers to this survey represent thousands of Americans!

Americans work hard every day, achieving triumphs and facing struggles. By studying both our successes and setbacks, we can help our nation make informed decisions. By law, all personal information collected for this study is kept strictly confidential.

In order for the country to know what is needed—how folks are doing and where they need help—we must conduct surveys such as the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) to produce that information.

Why Measure Employment and the Labor Force?
