About this service
Having appropriate identification documents is necessary in order to access basic and important needs food, housing, clothing, social assistance, a bank account, and so on. The purpose of the ID Clinic is to assist people who are in very vulnerable situations with replacement of their Birth Certificate. The lack of a birth certificate or other government issued identification often prevents people from accessing services that are vital to their health and well-being, including income support (Ontario Works (OW), Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) and Employment Insurance (EI)). The ID Clinic is offered throughout the week and appointments are preferred. The ID Clinic Support Staff assists clients with completing the appropriate forms, tracking down needed information and advocating where needed. Limited funding may be available to cover the cost of the birth certificate replacement.
