Program Description
Through a partnership between the Urban League of Greater Atlanta, the Income Mobility Program for Atlanta Community Transformation (I.M.P.A.C.T.) was implemented to prove the efficacy of a guaranteed income in helping communities achieve economic stability. The IMPACT Program serves 300 residents of the City of Atlanta by providing them with unrestricted cash payments of $500.00/month for one year. Applicants had to be at least 18 years of age, live within the city limits of Atlanta, and have an annual household income less than or equal to 200% of the 2021 federal poverty guidelines. Of the 300 participants in the IMPACT Program, 25 participants make up a non-evaluated cohort Storytelling Cohort with the remaining 275 participants making up an evaluated cohort who will also have the option of participating in research activities.
