Provincial programs that residents of Lethbridge can access.
Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH)
Up to $1,901/month (2025)
Alberta's primary income support for adults with a permanent disability that severely limits their ability to earn a living. Includes health benefits for the recipient, spouse, and dependent children. CRITICAL: Alberta claws back the $200 CDB from AISH recipients dollar-for-dollar. Priority processing is available for terminal and palliative cases. Budget 2025 included $49 million in cuts to the AISH program, though the government claims no income loss due to CDB offset — advocates strongly dispute this.
