The program is aimed at addressing housing discrimination and segregation.

The city's original plan was to distribute funds to eligible Black households in the form of $25,000 payments — for home repairs, down payments or interest or late penalties owed to the city. The measure has since expanded to include direct cash payments that can be used at recipients' discretion.
