Caring for a child

The Family Health Benefits program gives health benefits for working families who are living on lower incomes or are getting the Saskatchewan Employment Supplement.

The Saskatchewan Employment Incentive provides working families who have low incomes with a monthly financial benefit and access to additional support services and benefits.

If you are a dependent child under 25 and your parent is living with a disability or they die, you may be able to get a monthly payment from this benefit if your parent was getting Canada Pension Plan benefits. If you live in Quebec, you should refer to the Quebec Pension Plan (QPP) instead, and contact Retraite Québec if you have any questions.

This benefit provides a monthly, tax-free benefit for families who care for a child under age 18 with a severe and prolonged physical or mental disability.

The Connecting Families Initiative assist eligible families get affordable monthly home internet package from $10 per month.
