Questions for Discussion

The answers to these questions will help us move forward with a plan that

delivers more opportunities for success and a decent standard of living to all

Ontario families.

1. Given that our first priority is children and their families, how can we do a better job

with existing resources to improve opportunities for children living in poverty?

2. What new ideas could we incorporate into our existing supports that would increase

opportunities for children living in poverty?

3. We know that communities are best positioned to understand and respond to

the local realities of poverty and opportunity. What is already working in your

community to support children, youth and their families living in poverty to

achieve their potential?

4. We know that to be successful we must all work together. How can we better

integrate the roles that we all play — individuals, not-for-profits, the private sector,

volunteers and all levels of government — in increasing opportunity for Ontarians

living in poverty?

5. We are focusing on children first, but we will develop a comprehensive, long-term

poverty reduction strategy for all people living in poverty. What are the key long-term

goals for improving opportunity with respect to groups other than children?

6. We need to be able to measure our progress on poverty reduction. What measures

do you think will best show our progress in improving opportunity for Ontarians living

in poverty?
