Working, expected to work project

Description

The Income Support program of Alberta Works provides financial assistance to Albertans who do not have enough money to cover basic needs such as shelter, food and clothing. The Income Support program has three client types: those expected to work (ETW); those not expected to work; and those in need of academic upgrading or training. Many of the ETW clients are employed and receive an income supplement, as they are unable to meet their basic needs. The Working Expected to Work Project was designed to gain a better understanding of the existing benefits and services received by working ETW clients, the challenges and disincentives working ETW clients face in becoming self-sufficient, the characteristics of the client group, the gaps present in the supports and services available to working ETW clients, and best practices related to ETW clients.
