The ENJF provides a one-time, direct cash benefit to eligible households who were excluded from both the federal stimulus checks and COVID related unemployment assistance -- including undocumented individuals, residents re-entering from the justice system, and any other individuals otherwise excluded.

Eligible households will receive a benefit of up to $2,000 per eligible individuals and a max of $4,000 per household. Households with incomes up to $55,000 a year can apply for assistance. 

Applications for this program will be accepted through February 28th. Applications may close sooner if funds are exhausted before the deadline.
