“I think the basic income is really helping. It does help because like I say, sometimes in the middle of the month I don't have gas money to put in my car so I can get to work. I may not have food. My medicine is expensive, so it pays for that. It helps pay a bill or two. So it matters.”

It makes us network together, to help each-other, to be a better community.”
