While there are differences between client types and needs, and programs and services delivered, results of the previous three agreements (CJF, LMAPD and the TIOW) have consistently demonstrated positive outcomes and impacts on clients, employers, and communities in Newfoundland and Labrador. Investments made through these agreements enabled the province to capitalize on a variety of economic and training opportunities and outcomes leading to job creation and growth.

Building Knowledge. ■ Maintenance and enhancement of data collection systems to better access program and service outcomes. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Island was the first jurisdiction in Canada to fully separate disability supports from income support programming. This separation effectively removed the primary disincentive that has historically prevented many individuals with disabilities from seeking long-term attachment to the labour force. People with disabilities, in particular those with more severe limitations, are often dependent on receiving disability specific financial supports for such needs as supervision or personal care. If these supports are attached to eligibility to social assistance programming, then an individual could lose their needed supports if they earned income and became ineligible for social assistance. Prior to the Disability Support Program, social assistance was the only option available for Islanders with disabilities over the age of 18. Under income support programs such as social assistance, disability supports were lost when a specific income level was achieved and eligibility for social assistance terminated. Under the Disability Support Program, some level of financial supports can be received up to higher levels of income based on a client contribution schedule. This approach removes disincentives for people with disabilities to earn income, as they will not lose their disability supports in their entirety. The Disability Support Program operates with an income test for adult clients. An income test looks only at adjusted net income, based on information from the most recent Notice of Assessment from Canada Revenue Agency, and does not consider individual or family assets. The Disability Support Program is designed to assist Islanders with a qualifying disability to overcome barriers and to attain a satisfactory quality of life. The Disability Support Program is a social program with a financial component. The program offers support planning assistance to help develop a plan of action and to help determine supports that are necessary. The program may also provide referrals to other agencies where services may be obtained.
