Lino M. Expenditures on children by families, 2013. Washington, DC: US Department of Agriculture, Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion; 2014. Miscellaneous Publication No. 1528-2013.

Background For over half a century, the USDA has made available to the public estimates of costs associated with raising children in America, including those specifically related to food expenditures. These estimates are intended to provide critical information needed to develop guidelines for state child support and foster care programs, as well as educational programs geared to families. The estimates are also useful for researchers and other stakeholders interested in understanding the allocation of financial resources within a household and how they change over time and are influenced by factors such as family structure and location of residence. The most recent report on this topic was published in August 2014 and is the topic of this “Reports from the Agencies.” It is noteworthy that although we focus here on expenditures related to food, those related to housing, transportation, clothing, health care, and child care/education are also described in this publication, which is considered to be the most comprehensive source of information on household expenditures related to children available at the national level.
