For families who have recently experienced homelessness in the Bay Area, where the cost of living is sky high,

It All Adds Up is a first-of-its-kind effort to determine the impact of direct cash payments on families’ long-term housing stability.

Over the next five years, with support from Google.org and J-PAL North America, and in partnership with New York University, this pilot is on a mission to prove that housing stability is more attainable when families who have recently experienced homelessness have just a little more room to breathe.
