1 m of textual records
The Task Force on Social Assistance was established in May of
1982 to examine the structure and policies of Manitoba's provincial
and municipal social assistance programs. The Task Force was appointed
under the chairmanship of Dr. Joe Ryant, Professor of Social Work
at the University of Manitoba. Dr. Ryant is particularly well-known
for contributions as chairman of the 1975 Manitoba Child Welfare
Review and for his activities as a teacher and author in the social
service field. The Task Force was designed to study the legislation
and programs in other provinces and to make recommendations to the
Minister of Community Services and corrections within certain terms
of reference.
