Program Goals

The P.A.I.D. program aims to develop a plan for change and conduct a study to show how maternal health and poverty are connected. Other goals include:

  • Reduce the economic burden of low-income pregnant people.
  • Make life better for pregnant people with low income from different races. As well as fix the unfair differences in their social, economic, and health situations during pregnancy.
  • Improve the quality of life of babies born into low-income families.

The Pregnancy Assistance Income with Dignity (P.A.I.D.) program provides direct cash assistance to pregnant people. P.A.I.D. is one of seven partner sites in a statewide Guaranteed Income pilot program through the California Department of Social Services.
