Families receiving money from a guaranteed income program in California will receive their next payment of $500 in three days.
Sonoma County selected 305 families to receive $500 every month for two years as part of its Pathway to Income Equity program, and the next payment is scheduled for March 15. Officials will study the effect the additional income has on reducing poverty and promoting economic mobility for families with young children, according to the Sonoma County Administrator's Office.
Applications for the program were only open to applicants who met specific criteria, including being a resident of Sonoma County. Other criteria included being pregnant and/or the parent of a child no older than 5, being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and making an income of less than 185% of the federal poverty level. The federal poverty level is $42,606 for a family of three.A total of 6,450 online applications were submitted for review, with 2,383 meeting the eligibility requirements.
Angie Dillon-Shore, director of the nonprofit group First 5 Sonoma County, told the Washington Examiner these payments would go out to recipients on the third Wednesday of every month and that the final payment would be issued in December 2024.
