A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life.
Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.
