Well-being of Shelter Guests in Vancouver

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will primarily investigate the impacts of a one-time unconditional cash transfer on the well-being of recently homeless individuals.

Secondary research questions will examine the impact of personal coaching for cash recipients and the impact of a workshop and coaching intervention for non-cash recipients.

Clinical Trial Description

The goal of this project is to examine the effect of a direct cash transfer intervention involving recently homeless people in Metro Vancouver. In partnership with the New Leaf Project, the investigators will distribute a one-time unconditional cash grant of $7,500 to 50 participants. An additional seventy five participants will serve as a control group and will not receive the cash transfer. Some participants will receive supplementary affirmational workshops and/or professional coaching. Participants will be followed up one month after baseline and then again every three months for 12 months to evaluate the effect of the cash transfer, workshop, and coaching interventions. Over the course of the study, the investigators will assess participants' cognitive functioning, subjective well-being, and self-efficacy. ;
