- title: What happened after these unhoused people got monthly $500 checks? Two-thirds have homes
- summary: “The group predicted that the money would help reduce stress and improve food security, and it did. But two-thirds of the people who were unhoused when the pilot began also now have permanent housing. (The number has grown since the program first ended, when only a third had moved into new housing.)” This was quite unexpected.
