Longitudinal analysis of employment success rates of Ontario income assistance clients: An analysis by region
Authors: Elena Hillman
Overview
Abstract (English)
This research paper addresses how changes in Ontario’s income assistance (IA) funding model affected employment success rates of IA clients over time and between regions. I use a multilevel logistic regression model to analyze variables coded from administrative and census data. The results show that there have been significant decreases in employment success rates across Ontario regions since the 1995 download of social services to municipalities. The discussion addresses key policy implications as a result of this analysis, specifically in favor of a standardized model of social service delivery.
