No family should be left behind when they need support the most. 

We advocate for a social security system in BC that reflects the real cost of living and the realities of families who need support. We call for bold reforms to BC’s income and disability assistance programs—including raising rates to the Market Basket Measure, indexing them to inflation, and removing earnings restrictions, access to training, and income limits.

Our vision includes a responsive, dignity-based system that supports economic inclusion and labour market access. Families deserve income security and supported pathways to thriving and increased income, not survival on the margins.
