Access this resource

You need to login or register to bookmark/favorite this content.

Organizations play a vital role in providing community members with access to benefits. Tax clinics, homeless shelters, food banks, health centres and others can all do their part to provide these services. 

This free 60-minute demonstration will showcase our new Bridge to Benefits tool which provides information and resources for organizations looking to help people living on low incomes access the benefits they are eligible for.  

As a result of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Recognize the importance of access to benefits services and how they can help for Canadians living on low income.  
  • Identify how their organization can support Canadians living on low income to access benefits services 
  • Use the Bridge to Benefits tool to find out how they get started or expand access to benefits services in their community.
