Mariana Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands rely heavily on need-based fed. programs to provide basic services. Two federal agencies publish measures used by some federal programs to determine poverty status and allocate need-based assistance: the Census Bureau (Census), and the Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS). The approaches used to determine these poverty measures affect, respectively, poverty population statistics and income eligibility of individuals and families for certain need-based federal assistance. This report examined how the Census poverty thresholds and HHS poverty guidelines are determined for the insular areas. This is a print on demand report.
