Description

This Seniors, Community and Social Services (SCSS) dataset describes the monthly Income Support caseload in Alberta, including two client groups: those Expected to Work (ETW) and those who have Barriers to Full Employment (BFE).

The caseload is defined as the number of households categorized as ETW or BFE during a specific reporting period.
