A powerful example of how basic income can provide a boost for former foster youths. I’m proud to partner with @DaveCortese in support of a statewide pilot of the innovative program he championed in Santa Clara County.https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Guaranteed-income-has-extended-a-lifeline-to-16306252.php …

Replying to @chesaboudin @DaveCortese
2009, I met 19-year-old who told me he entered foster care at age 7. He was placed there after he playing with matches burned down the family home killing two siblings. A week after his 18th birthday he was cut lose by foster care. If only if he had a lifeline like this program.
