According to Vibes.okdiario , The City of Sacramento, California, is still in the process of distributing a stimulus check as part of a pilot program. This program offers a series of monthly payments of $725, which will continue for an entire year, running through 2025.
The goal of this payment initiative is to support vulnerable individuals who are struggling financially. However, it is important to note that this program is not available to everyone. Only individuals who meet specific eligibility criteria will receive the aid.
How Does This Stimulus Check Work?
The main requirement for receiving these payments is that the recipient’s income must be below 200% of the federal poverty level. Additionally, this is not a universal program—only a limited number of families in Sacramento County will benefit. The first round of payments is being distributed to 200 families selected based on the established criteria.
One of the key features of this program is that there are no restrictions on how the payment can be used. Beneficiaries can spend the $725 on any expenses, unlike programs such as SNAP, which are limited to food purchases. This flexibility makes it easier for recipients to cover various costs, whether related to housing, utilities, or other necessities.

Sacramento First Family Economic Support Pilot Program
The full name of the program is the Sacramento First Family Economic Support Pilot Program. This initiative is funded by a grant from the California Department of Social Services and is administered by the Sacramento County Department of Child, Family, and Adult Services, in collaboration with a local nonprofit organization.
A crucial condition of the program is that if the recipient family moves outside of Sacramento County, or if they no longer meet the eligibility criteria, the payments will be suspended. Furthermore, only families residing in specific ZIP codes (95815, 95821, 95823, 95825, 95828, and 95838) are eligible to participate in the program.
In summary, this stimulus check provides financial relief to select families in Sacramento, offering flexibility in how the funds can be used.
