Wayne County rolled out a new program Thursday, called Wayne County Cares, to help county residents who have been affected by the state s recent COVID-19 public health orders that shut down or reduced services at many businesses.
The county is offering a one-time, no strings attached $500 cash card to eligible applicants who must have worked in food service, group fitness, hospitality, or entertainment businesses since March 2020 and meet certain income limits. The public health orders were a difficult but necessary step to keep our communities healthy, said Wayne County Executive Warren Evans in a written statement. However, we know many Wayne County families are hurting. It s critical we help ease the financial burden for those affected. This effort empowers displaced workers with direct support to spend however they need.
