Starting today, SFMTA is accepting applications for the storied Free Muni for Youth program, which was finally adopted in December. SFGate’s City Insider has the story:

To be eligible for the program, kids must be San Francisco residents between 5 and 17 and from households with annual gross incomes below the Bay Area median income. That varies by household size but for a household of two, it’s $82,400; three, $92,700 and four, $103,000. Applicants must have or get Clipper cards.

Qualified youth will get a free Muni pass until they turn 18 or the program ends. It is scheduled to begin on March 1 and continue for at least 16 months.

To apply, go to SFMTA’s Free Muni for Youth page.
