Guaranteed Income $500 checks will reach 125 Indianapolis households through 2028 under a $2.5 million housing stability program. The monthly $500 payments target low-income renters facing eviction and rising housing costs. Leaders expanded the guaranteed income program after an 18-month pilot boosted employment and credit scores. Families receive direct cash with no strings attached.
