There is a rapidly intensifying human resource crisis in non-profits delivering care, which means longer wait times, gaps in services and intense pressure on organizations to take on more with less. This paper outlines eight solutions to make wage parity a reality.

Graduates of 2010 to 2018 receiving payments from the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) program in 2020 (Statistics Canada)

This study shows that 2010 to 2018 graduates were less likely to receive CERB payments than the general working population overall; however, those who graduated with a college-level certificate or a college-level diploma in 2018 were more likely to have received the CERB than the “all workers” category. “Visual and performing arts, and communications technologies” graduates were the most likely to receive CERB payments.
