To be FSP-eligible, individuals needed to be in the ACO, have food or housing insecurity, and meet specific health criteria. Quantitative measures of reach, enrollment, and services were integrated with findings from interviews with ACO (n = 12) and SSO (n = 11) staff.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, 15.1% of 16 289 FSP-eligible adults and 11.8% of 5476 FSP-eligible children were enrolled. Nutrition enrollments increased over time, but housing enrollments remained low. ACO and SSO staff described positive impacts, including tailored support for patients' needs, SSO organizational growth, and understanding of how SSOs can partner with health care. Implementation challenges included complex contracts, administrative burden, and housing shortages. State funding for SSO infrastructure, cross-sector data sharing, workflow simplification, and ACO\u2013SSO communication improved efficiency and reduced burden.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The ACO\u2013SSO partnerships expanded resources to address beneficiaries' HRSN.
