NYC launching program to pay young criminal offenders $1k per month for participation, good behavior: reports
Fox News
A New York City pilot program has come under fire for what local reports describe as a plan to pay young criminal offenders $1,000 each month for involvement in the program and good behavior.
The program is being tested through five police precincts, one in each of the New York City boroughs, according to a Mayor’s Office press release from March. De Blasio said during a press conference at the time that Williams approached him about utilizing the Advance Peace model. "Under the pilot, the City will conduct outreach in areas with high levels of gun violence to identify youth who are at-risk for gun violence," the release states. "Select individuals are then invited to join the Peacemaker fellowship, which pairs mentees with individual Neighborhood Change Agents who mentor them and set tangible goals like a driver's license or a GED."
