ATLANTA — A new guaranteed income program in Georgia will provide more than 600 Black women across the state with $850 per month for at least two years, a community-based organization administering the program announced this week.

The program, called In Her Hands, will distribute out of a total fund of more than $13 million, the Georgia Resilience & Opportunity Fund (GRO Fund) said.

It will initially target 200 women in Atlanta's Old Fourth Ward neighborhood, where City Council representative Amir Farokhi has been working to establish a pilot basic income program.
