  • 11 Actual data from 2004-2005: All numbers listed are provided by provinces (except New Brunswick and Quebec). The number of clients served is high because some clients have been double-counted as they received services from more than one program within the year. Provinces cannot isolate the clients double-counted.

    The number of clients completing a program or service and the number of clients employed are considered low because of the clients being double-counted and also because not all programs have the explicit outcome of employment. The goals of many programs funded through LMAPD is to enhance the employability of the client through training and work on life-skills issues.
  • 12 Actual data from 2005-2006: The enhanced employability value is considered an underestimate. This is a generated field based on the completion of certain types of interventions like training. There are reporting issues which are currently being addressed.
