Between 2021 and 2023, Arlington’s Guarantee provided 200 households $500 per month with no strings attached for 18 months. The majority of participant households were in the County Housing Grants program who were making 30% AMI or below and who had children under 18, with special carve-out samples for 25 individuals re-entering the community after incarceration and 25 undocumented heads of households.
