Recipients will be allowed to spend this $200 payment in any way they please, including groceries, travel expenses, and buying new equipment for their music, among other needs. This freedom of choice recipients are given in spending their income is because the program is based on a universal basic income model.

To be eligible for this program, an applicant must live in the Greater Rochester area of New York and be at least 18. Additionally, they must identify as a member, worker, or participant within the local music community and demonstrate financial need.
