Chicago’s Guaranteed Income Project Shows Promising Results

FEATURING RACHEL PYON - A Guaranteed Income pilot project called the Chicago Future Fund has just released its latest report. The project, run by Equity and Transformation (EAT) Chicago, is based in the city’s west side where high unemployment and high rates of police activity, arrests, and incarceration have challenged local residents. CFF’s guaranteed income project provided $500 a month from March 2023 to February 2024  to 100 formerly incarcerated individuals.
