The program aims to help young parents and pregnant women, and could even amount to $7,500 depending on household factors.

Under the program, pregnant women can receive a $1,500 stipend in the middle of their pregnancy, and an additional $500 for each month of the child’s first year of life. This means that families can receive a total of $7,500 to help them get back on their feet.
