ABOUT

 Gainesville's premiere screening of the documentary “It’s Basic” featured special guests Mayor Harvey Ward, former Mayor Lauren Poe, the filmmakers, and Just Income Gainesville beneficiaries, who shared inspiring stories about the impact guaranteed income had on their lives..


In 2021, Community Spring, in collaboration with former Mayor Lauren Poe, initiated Just Income, a groundbreaking guaranteed income pilot program designed to provide crucial support to the reentry population. The program selected 115 justice-impacted individuals who received $1,000 in the first month, followed by $600 per month for the subsequent eleven months.
