Authors: Evelyn L. Forget, Rashid Ahmed, Tooba Ahmed, and P. Das
Overview
Abstract (English)
We examine Ontario Works data to answer a series of questions about the changing needs of low-income families in Ontario: * What proportion of the caseload is represented by different family types, and how have the proportions changed over time? * How much income do families receive from sources other than Ontario works, and has this changed over time? * What is the mean/median length of Ontario Works participation, and have these been changing in recent years?
