Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four study arms that vary in stipend delivery schedule (weekly vs. monthly) and access to a digital behavioral intervention (during vs. after the study).

These data will help identify effective strategies for reducing binge eating among individuals experiencing food insecurity.
