Double ODSP/OW – Ontario Provincial Day of Action
Join ACORN members for the Ontario Day of Action on Tuesday, September 16th to demand that the Ford government raise social assistance rates and end legislated poverty.
People on Ontario Works (OW) receive just $733/month.
A single person on the Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) can receive a max of $1,368/month.
That’s up to 60% below the poverty line - SHAME!
This is unacceptable. ACORN is fighting for:
Doubling ODSP/OW rates
Indexing rates to inflation permanently
Matching housing allowance to market rent by city
Ending spousal income and benefits clawbacks
Stopping the Province’s harmful “New Vision” for social assistance
Come stand with people with disabilities and low-income Ontarians to demand dignity and justice. Together we can win!
