Eligibility Requirements

• Age: You must be at least 21 years old and not turn 24 before Sept. 1.
• Background: You must be a former Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services foster youth who were in care on or after their 18th birthday.
• Income: Your household income should be at or below 100% of the area median income for a single-person household or 120% for a household of two or more people.

Last year, the Breathe program selected 1,000 lucky individuals to receive $1,000 every month for three years. Now, they are expanding their reach by adding 200 more people who will receive the same amount every month for two years. This is an incredible opportunity that you don’t want to miss!

It’s important to note that the University of Pennsylvania and other research partners will be conducting a randomized control study to measure the outcomes of the program. While participation in the study is not required to receive the monthly payments, those who choose to participate will be asked to provide periodic information on their overall health and well-being. As a token of appreciation, they will receive a $30 gift card for every survey completed.

Even if you are not selected for the monthly payments, you still have a chance to be part of the study. An additional 2,000 applicants will be randomly chosen to participate in the control group. Although they won’t receive the $1,000 payments, they will still be compensated with a $30 gift card for each survey they complete.

Don’t wait any longer! Apply now on Los Angeles County’s website and take a step towards financial security and a brighter future.
