Ontario Care Policy Scorecard

Ontario Nonprofit Network adapts Oxfam Canada’s national Care Policy Scorecard for the Ontario context

The Ontario Nonprofit Network (ONN) has released the Ontario Care Policy Scorecard, a tool used that will be used to assess the policies that shape the Ontarian care economy. The tool is adapted from Oxfam Canada’s nationally-focused Care Policy Scorecard, which launched in 2021.

The Scorecard consists of three sections with related policy areas:

Each policy area includes sets of indicators alongside an assessment criteria to develop an overall score for each indicator. At the end of each policy area, there is a scoring matrix provided to indicate the degree to which the policies are transformative.

ONN expects to use the scorecard to complete an evaluation of Ontario’s care policies in 2026.
