Dignity for All: A National Anti-Poverty Plan for Canada

4.8 million people in Canada struggle to pay their rent, feed their families, and address basic needs. The Evangelical Fellowship of Canada, the Canadian Council of Churches, together with Dignity for All, are working together to address poverty in Canada.

A “Justice Tour” of Canadian church leaders in April and May, 2015, on the topics of climate justice and poverty in Canada, will use the comprehensive Dignity for All report as a platform for further discussion and action. Congregations are invited to engage this report and discern what it means for ministry in their local communities.

The downloadable packet includes:

• The Dignity for All Report
• The 2011 Interfaith Declaration
• The Canadian Council of Churches' Brief entitled, "Federal Contribution Ending Poverty"
• The 2007 Canadian Council of Churches' "Poverty Letter" to Prime Minister Stephen Harper
