Sacramento County Launches Innovative Pilot Program to Aid African American and Native American Families in Poverty

Guaranteed Basic Income: $725 Monthly Aid to Begin in July for Selected Families

According to Cbs news, in an ambitious attempt to solve social problems, Sacramento County plans to start a unique program. This program will give money to African American and Native American families who are facing poverty. The idea behind this comes from a concept called guaranteed basic income. Starting in July, some families will receive $725 every month. This decision was made because there are serious differences in how people are treated, especially when it comes to child safety. Even though only 11% of the county’s population are African American children, they make up 30% of calls to Child Protective Services.

Michelle Callejas, who leads the child, family, and adult services in the county, believes that the guaranteed basic income program can help families in need, especially those from marginalized communities. She hopes that this financial support will help them escape poverty and find better opportunities in education and careers. Although there are people who have doubts about the program, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors has agreed to support it. They want to closely monitor the results and make improvements to the program as needed.
