Building Independence is a series of unique programs that help low-income people find jobs and enhance supports to stay employed. Since the initiative’s introduction in 1997, 41 per cent fewer families depend on social assistance. During this time, the province has seen a reduction of 6,800 families and almost 15,000 children relying on social assistance. In addition, there has been a substantial increase in after-tax disposable income for families working for minimum wage and the lowest social assistance caseload since 1991. 2, record 5, English, - Building%20Independence

Building Independence consists of four programs-the Saskatchewan Employment Supplement(SES), the Saskatchewan Child Benefit(SCB), Family Health Benefits(FHB) and the Provincial Training Allowance(PTA). These programs help families enter and stay in the work force by directly addressing barriers to employment. Launched in July 1998, Building Independence represents the most significant change to Saskatchewan's income security programs in 35 years. Three of the four Building Independence programs are part of the NCB initiative. 3, record 5, English, - Building%20Independence

Health status improves with level of education. Education is closely tied to socioeconomic status, and effective education for children and lifelong learning for adults are key contributors to health and prosperity for individuals, and for the country. Education contributes to health and prosperity by equipping people with knowledge and skills for problem solving, and helps provide a sense of control and mastery over life circumstances. It increases opportunities for job and income security, and job satisfaction. And it improves people's ability to access and understand information to help keep them healthy. 1, record 8, English, - Determinant%20of%20Health%203%20%2D%20Education
