Some pregnant people in Philadelphia are about to get $1,000 a month in what the mayor is calling a 'pro-life' program
the country's first state-funded guaranteed income program, which serves low-income pregnant people, as well as former foster youth transitioning into adulthood.
"Infant mortality in Philadelphia is a solvable crisis," Health commissioner Dr. Cheryl Bettigole said in a press release."We know that being able to better support pregnant people and new parents helps keep babies alive. As the poorest big city in the country, this is not always easy, especially in areas of the city that are being crushed by generational poverty and systemic racism.
