Advocating for Refugee and Other Precarious Status Clients on Social Assistance Matters
Recorded on December 11, 2013 - A growing number of immigrant and
refugee clients are having their benefits illegally terminated based on a
misapplication of social assistance regulations. This webinar looks at
how immigration status and/or a removal order impacts eligibility for
Ontario Works or Ontario Disability Support Program and how recent
changes to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act are being
interpreted by some caseworkers. It also covers ways to advocate with
caseworkers, how to request information, what information to include in
an internal review of a decision to terminate benefits, and where to get
additional help. For more information on this webinar visit the Training section of the Your Legal Rights website at: www.yourlegalrights.on.ca/training
