Resource Details
Alternate Name	IGI
Description	Ithaca Guaranteed Income (IGI) provides $450/month for 12 months for 110 people who earn 80% Area Median Income or less and who are caregivers in the City of Ithaca. The application will open on 12/10/2021 and close on 12/21/2021. More program information is available at:https://hsctc.org/igi/ The application can be found at this link: http://tiny.utk.edu/igi. The application itself is available in English, Spanish, Karen, Simplified Chinese, and Korean. DO NOT interpret any questions on the survey itself for callers. This is a research study and the folks at UPenn were very clear that we should not be helping to clarify what a question in the survey is asking. If the caller wants to receive personalized assistance with the application, please ask them the following pre-screening questions: Are you having a technical problem, or are you having issues with the questions themselves? IF THEY ARE HAVING A TECHNICAL PROBLEM: Do you have a service provider, friend, or family member who you could call who has access to a computer/internet and could help you fill out the application? Could you do the application on your cell phone? If not, could you go to the library? IF THEY ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH SURVEY CONTENT: Did you know that there’s no right or wrong answer to any questions? Could you skip that question and continue with the rest of the survey? Do you have a service provider, friend, or family member who could help you fill out the application? Could I put you on a list to receive follow-up from one of our Housing Specialists, who can help to answer some of your questions? IF ANY OF THE ABOVE QUESTIONS DO NOT MEET THEIR NEEDS: Would it be helpful for you to come into the office to do the application on a laptop and ask any questions to our Housing Specialists? IF YES, please offer them one of the available (IN-OFFICE) time blocks in the IGI scheduling google calendar. If you find a one-hour time slot that works for them, please replace the event title with their name and phone number. IF THERE ISN’T A TIME THAT WORKS FOR THEM: If there is not an available time slot, please refer them to our walk-in first-come first-serve event at the Tompkins County Public Library from 1pm to 4pm on Wednesday, December 15th. IF NONE OF THESE OPTIONS WORK FOR THEM: Recommend a follow-up from Simone or Brett.
