Download or read book Canada s National Child Benefit written by Douglas Durst and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Child Benefit announced in the 1997 federal Budget promised 850 million dollars to move children out of the welfare rolls and the trap of poverty. This book attempts to outline the key concepts of this new program and set the stage for discussion of its potential impact. The writers do not agree. This book does not present a unified argument either supporting or critiquing the program but raises a series of important issues and concerns regarding the programs effectiveness in addressing child poverty. The question remains: Is this new federal social program a phoenix rising from the ashes of past social welfare programs or just a federal fizzle?

Download or read book A Roadmap to Reducing Child Poverty written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strengths and abilities children develop from infancy through adolescence are crucial for their physical, emotional, and cognitive growth, which in turn help them to achieve success in school and to become responsible, economically self-sufficient, and healthy adults. Capable, responsible, and healthy adults are clearly the foundation of a well-functioning and prosperous society, yet America's future is not as secure as it could be because millions of American children live in families with incomes below the poverty line. A wealth of evidence suggests that a lack of adequate economic resources for families with children compromises these children's ability to grow and achieve adult success, hurting them and the broader society. A Roadmap to Reducing Child Poverty reviews the research on linkages between child poverty and child well-being, and analyzes the poverty-reducing effects of major assistance programs directed at children and families. This report also provides policy and program recommendations for reducing the number of children living in poverty in the United States by half within 10 years.

Download or read book The Impact of the National Child Benefit Supplement on the Low Income Status of Canadian Families with Children written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of a number of simulations with the Social Policy Simulation Database and Model (SPSD/M) of National Child Benefit (NCB) rules, isolating the impact of these rules on low-income or poverty rates and gaps in Canada. According to the after-tax LICO, now the most widely reported measure of low income or poverty, the national poverty rate for economic families with children - after the provincial clawback of the NCB supplement (NCBS) from social assistance recipients and the provincial re-investment in cash or income-support programs (excluding in-kind programs) are factored in - fell 4.6 per cent between 1996 and 1999 because of the introduction of the NCBS. The drop in the poverty gap was even greater: 8.7 per cent. Under the rules set to be in place by 2004, the decline in the after-tax LICO poverty rate is projected to be 11.8 per cent and that in the poverty gap 18.0 per cent relative to the rate and gap that would have prevailed in the pre-NCBS world. The improvement in the economic well-being of low-income families with children would be even larger if the impact of provincial in-kind programs financed by the NCBS through the social assistance clawback were included.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on available research, Canadian families are increasingly relying on child care services, with most Canadian families making use of some form of child-care services on a regular basis. While the federal government did not historically have direct involvement in the provision of child care, it has a long history of providing indirect and direct support to assist Canadians with the costs of raising children. This includes, but is not limited to, the delivery of the Family Allowance (discontinued in 1993), the Canada Child Tax Benefit (which includes the National Child Benefit Supplement), as well as the Child Care Expense Deduction.
