Guaranteed income is a social welfare benefit growing in popularity across the United States. It gives eligible individuals steady cash payments for a specific and limited time. The payments help recipients reach a standard of living above the poverty line, which in Philadelphia is among the highest of big cities in the United States. Learn how the benefit works and how to build political will to develop the concept. It’s all part of the latest installment of WOMEN’S WAY’s virtual series, Closing the Gender Wealth Gap: Advancing Gender Equity with Guaranteed Income. Get a deeper understanding of how guaranteed income pilots can reduce poverty and enhance the well-being of women and their families. The panel will be led by moderator Anne Price, Co-President and Founder of The Maven Collaborative. The expert panelists include Dr. Amy Castro, Associate Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, Co-Founder, of the Center for Guaranteed Income Research; Nia Coaxum, MPH, CHES -- Philly Joy Bank Program Manager in the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, and William Hall, Deputy Executive Director for Policy and Programs in the City of Philadelphia’s Office of Community Empowerment and Opportunity.
