Food banks exist across this province not because of a lack of food, but because many individuals do not have access to a sufficient income that allows them to afford all of their basic necessities. Long-term policy solutions are key to not only ending hunger, but alleviating poverty &#8211; but these require time and collaboration from community leaders and all levels of government. Low benefit rates for Ontario Works (OW) and the Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) combined with high clawbacks from other sources of income create barriers that trap recipients in a cycle of poverty. Use our simple tool to tell your MPP\u00a0 to stop the clawbacks for social assistance recipients on earned income and benefits like EI, CPP, WSIB, and the upcoming Canada Disability Benefit.<\/p>\n<p>Explore the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/feedontario.ca\/story\/eliminating-the-need-for-food-banks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hard Truths of Hunger<\/a>\u00a0and learn what can be done to eliminate the need for food banks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why this matters:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 in 3 food bank users in Ontario cite disability related benefits as their primary source of income<\/li>\n<li>OW recipients that are working can only keep their first $200 earned.
