Programs & Services

Our Social Development program is responsible for delivering short and long-term financial assistance to individuals and their families who are experiencing financial adversity. The primary applicant must be between 18 to 64 years of age, living on reserve, and be qualified under the eligibility standards in the PEI Provincial Social Assistance Act and Indigenous Services Canada’s National Program Guidelines. Through a holistic case management approach, it is the goal of our Social Development program to facilitate clients along the continuum of dependency to self-reliance and meaningful employment. Each case is assessed independently, with clients being responsible for providing necessary documentation substantiating their need for financial assistance.
