Alberta Works

Alberta Works focuses on training people for employment.

The goals of Alberta Works are to help unemployed people find and keep jobs, help employers meet their need for skilled workers, and help Albertans with low incomes cover their basic costs of living.

Alberta Works achieves these goals through its four program areas: Employment and Training Services, Income Support, Health Benefits and Child Support Services.

	Income Support Income Support provides financial benefits to individuals and families who do not have the resources to meet their basic needs, like food, clothing and shelter.
	Child Support Services Child Support Services helps single parents and parents living in blended families get the legal agreements or court orders they need to obtain child support.
	Health Benefits Through Alberta Works, people who are eligible for income support receive health benefits for themselves and their dependants.
	Financial Support for Training Tuition, books and supplies, and living allowance may be available if you qualify as an eligible learner.
	Alberta Works...for farmers A program to help farm families through brief periods of financial difficulty.
