In September the Government of Manitoba released its annual report for ALL Aboard: Manitoba’s Poverty Reduction and Social Inclusion Strategy. Covering many of the Government’s activities and efforts over the last year, the report focuses on highlighting the most recent results for the 21 indicators of progress, as required in The Poverty Reduction Strategy Act.

In 2012 the Social Planning Council of Winnipeg (SPCW) provided a response and recommendations for implementing the Act. In the spirit of continuing government-community engagement, SPCW is responding to the Annual Report with support, analysis and suggestions for follow up.
