Nurturing Futures in Boulder County after stimulus checks
Many low-income families may need extra money to set up a business, pay the mortgage, buy groceries, or any other necessary expenses. Not to mention the fact that families with younger kids need a great deal of money to buy everything they need.
That is why Boulder County is now accepting applications to support families with at least one kid under 4. The Boulder County Department of Human Services (BCHS) will give direct cash assistance to 725 eligible needy families.
They will get, if chosen, $300 per month for 2 years. That means selected applicants will get a total of $7,200 in total. In this way, the program will help Boulder County get a better future for the community.
