There are only three days left to submit an application for the Los Angeles County Guaranteed Income Program, which would give recipients $1,000 monthly payments for a period of two years.
200 applicants who were foster children in the past will be chosen for the Breathe program’s two-year payment schedule.
Get $1,000 Monthly for Two Years
According to the program’s website, the application period began on June 20 and will end at 11:59 pm on July 3.
Last year, the same program chose 1,000 recipients to earn $1,000 per month for three years.
According to a Los Angeles County spokesman who talked to the Washington Examiner, the initiative is now expanding to 200 more people who will receive the same amount each month for two years.
The first 1,000 beneficiaries were chosen at random from a group of qualified applicants.
Applicants must be at least 21 years old and not turn 24 before September 1 in order to qualify for the program.
Additionally, candidates must have been foster youth in the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services system when they turned 18 or later.
Other requirements include having a household income that is equal to or less than 120% for households with two or more individuals, or 100% for households with one person.

To evaluate the program’s results, the University of Pennsylvania and additional research collaborators will also carry out a randomized control trial.
Although it is not necessary to participate in the study to receive the monthly payments, individuals who do will be requested to periodically supply information on several facets of their general health and well-being. For each survey they complete, recipients will get a $30 gift card.
