In the spring of 2022, the City of Minneapolis will pilot a Guaranteed Basic Income Program.

They will enroll 200 families in the pilot.

How it works

• You receive the payment every month for two years.
• You use the extra money in a way that makes sense for you.

Program goals

  • Immediate need examples: rent and food
  • Long-term investment examples: tuition, college savings, vehicle repairs
• You become financially secure.
