St. Louis will pay $500 per month for residents to ‘lift themselves out of poverty’ in a program partly funded by Jack Dorsey
“St. Louis is launching a program that seeks to help low-income families by providing them with $500 monthly payments for 18 months. The program is a signature priority for Mayor Tishaura Jones, who said Tuesday that the money will go to hundreds of city households, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. She believes it will help rebuild neighborhoods and prevent the root causes of crime.”
