Families in Ontario can start applying for funding to support new education-related expenses.
The new Support for Learners program will provide direct one-time payments to help offset additional learning costs, whether children attend school in person, online or a mix of both.
It means $200 for each child aged 0 to 12 or $250 if their child or youth is aged 0 to 21 with special needs.
The funding also assists with additional childcare costs, whether the child is in child care or at home.
