“I feel like the government needs to take more responsibility for how they’re handling updates to their system,” said William Keller, an ADAP recipient.
Keller has relied on provincial supports since 2012 because of a mental disability that impacts his ability to work, but this month the payment didn’t come in time for his rent.
The government is aware of the technical issues in the August disability income assistance payment.
Minister Nathan Neudorf says in a social media post that they are working to identify impacted clients and to immediately correct any payment issues in full.
This month, Alberta officially overhauled the program, transitioning people like Keller to the Alberta Disability Assistance Program (ADAP).
