Essential

Money for parents

Idea Submission for The People's Money:
A stipend for struggling single parents as a secure monthly revenue. It would provide an additional support system and granted they use it efficiently - it can allow for the child to be properly taken care of and allow the parents to have some stability.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
I feel like it would give the people an additional support system. It seems underfunded and there is a large part of the NY population struggling.
Which groups does your idea focus on? Select all that apply
