Benefits & Services
Our goal is better and more tailored supports to Manitobans living with severe and prolonged disabilities. The new program will offer two types of assistance: help with daily living expenses, and also help to connect with services in the community.
Income support
If eligible for this program, you can receive money for living expenses, housing and potentially other unique supports that you need. The amount you get will depend on your living situation and other financial resources you may have access to.
Community Helper services
The program can also help you build a strong support network and access programs that are right for you. This help is optional, and will be available later in 2023.
Fast and accessible service
Changes underway will reduce the amount of paperwork for people accepted into this program. One centralized team will deliver payments. That means clients can count on fast, reliable, consistent service with less red tape.
