California families receiving money from a guaranteed income program will receive their next payment in 15 days. The Pathway to Income Equity pilot program pays 305 households in Sonoma County $500 every month.
The Pathway to Income Equity pilot program pays 305 households in Sonoma County $500 every month. The payments are sent to applicants on the third Wednesday of the month, which will be May 17 for the next payment, according to the Sonoma County Administrator's Office.
"The information we gain from this pilot program will help shape future efforts to improve the health and welfare of our community," he added. The 305 recipients were selected out of 6,450 applications last year. To be eligible, applicants had to have at least one child under age 6, be affected in some way by the coronavirus pandemic, and have a household income of no more than 185% above the federal poverty level.
Sonoma County officials will study what effect this additional monthly income has on reducing poverty and promoting economic mobility for families with young children, according to the administrator's office. "We are working with an external evaluator to conduct qualitative research with the participants over the two years," Angie Dillon-Shore, director of the nonprofit organization First 5 Sonoma County, told the Washington Examiner."The preliminary findings of the first year will be available in spring 2024, and then a final evaluation report after the pilot concludes in early 2025," she added.
