ABOUT THE ABUNDANT BIRTH PROJECT
   The California Abundant Birth Project ( CA ABP ) is a guaranteed income program that provides cash during pregnancy . It was developed by Expecting Justice and the community to make birthing healthier and safer for the people facing the greatest risk during their pregnancy journey .
   CA ABP provides cash with no strings attached as a strategy to prevent stress during pregnancy . Research shows this is likely to prevent babies from being born too early or too small and can also protect the health of the mother ( birthing parent ) . By providing unconditional cash , mamas have resources to support themselves and their families , and babies have the chance at a healthy start .
   Contra Costa County Abundant Birth Project will provide
   $1 , 000 monthly unconditional income supplements
   to 100 pregnant individuals at highest risk of perinatal health inequities starting in the 1st or 2nd trimester for 12 months starting in January 2024 .
