Social Assistance Review Commission invites feedback on first discussion paper

The Commission for the Review of Social Assistance in Ontario has now released and invited feedback on its first Discussion Paper. The Discussion Paper: Issues and Ideas, and a short version, Summary and Workbook, are now available on the website: www.socialassistancereview.ca

The Commission will be travelling around Ontario through the summer to meet with groups in formal consultations. They have prepared the Workbook for people to use as a tool to provide input, and a Guide for hosting community conversations on the issues. The deadline for input in this first round of consultations is September 1.

The Commission will be visiting London on June 29th.  I'll share the details as they become available, but consider this your "Hold the Date" notice.
