To begin with I have 3 children that have been in and out of my life. My 16 year old daughter recently showed up at my door. Her Mother had kicked her out again. I am a receipient of O.D.S.P. I called my income supports specialist to have her added to my file. I was then informed that she had to be enrolled in school in order for me to receive benefits, which I did.
Now I'm being told that the back to school allowance has been discontinued as well as sesonal clothing allowances. I as well as everyone else receiving government benefits are already living below the National Poverty Line.
I want to know where we are supposed to find the funds to keep our kids in school as well as warm clothing on their backs.
We, the undersigned, call on the Provincial Government to reinstate the Back To School, and Sesonal Clothing allowances so we can keep our Kids in School and warm clothes on their backs.
