A guaranteed income program in Palm Springs, California, will pay selected residents $800 every month starting Monday.
The program, which will begin the 18-month pay schedule on May 15, selected 30 recipients in March and is being run by nonprofit organizations Queer Works and DAP Health. The recipients of this program will be free to spend the monthly payments in any way they see fit, according to Queer Works.To have been eligible for this program, applicants needed to have an income of no more than 30% of the median income of Riverside County, which is equal to $16,600.
Recipients will also be required to participate in a study by Queer Works, which will involve surveys taken each month. The data from this program will be made available every six months, and the final report is expected in winter 2024. Applications for this program opened on March 15 and closed on March 25. The recipients of the program were notified of their selection on March 30.The funding for this program, which Queer Works described as universal basic income, comes in the form of $500,000 from the city of Palm Springs.
The program is one of several guaranteed income programs taking place in California. In the city of El Monte, a program paying 125 applicants $500 every month is expected to begin on June 1, and in Sonoma County, recipients of the Pathway to Income Equity pilot program, who receive $500 every month, will receive their next payment on May 17.
