What socio-economic data does HELP use?For the ECD Mapping Project, HELP selects and maps socio- economic indicators that are useful for understanding the charac-teristics of a neighborhood and how those characteristics might influence early child development. This includes population data for over 1,200 variables from the 2001 and 2006 Census. HELP has also uses some 1998 and 2004 income tax records and has access to administrative data on child care services. All records are processed by the same neighbourhood and school district boundaries that are used to analyze the EDI results. This allows communities to consider relationships between the EDI results and the socio-economic character of their local neighbourhoods.

How are the variables mapped?HELP’s EDI mapping follows a Green to Red colour scheme based on Provincial Time 1 Quintiles. This means that all neighbour-hoods were placed into five equal sized groups based on their Time 1 EDI vulnerability results. This is considered the baseline.

The SES and policy components in this map package follow this Green to Red colour scheme to indicate their relationship to neighbourhood EDI vulnerability.

What is Socio-Economic Status (SES)?Socio-economic status (SES) is used to describe a variety of social and economic conditions within a geographic area of residence. For example, income, employment and education are most commonly used to determine the general SES of individuals, neighbourhoods or communities. Other factors also have important effects on SES, including ethnicity, language, citizen-ship, etc.

Why is SES important important?In Canada, child development is influenced by various socio-economic circumstances that have created a “developmental gradient” (i.e. an incremental, step-wise trend) that moves along the socio-economic spectrum.

In Canada, inequalities in child development emerge in a systematic fashion over the first five years of life according to well-organized factors: family income, parental education, parenting style, neighbourhood safety and cohesion, neighbor-hood socioeconomic differences, and access to quality child care and developmental opportunities. By age 5, a ‘gradient’ in early child development emerges, such that, as one goes from the families with the lowest to highest incomes; least to most parental education; and least to most nurturing and interactive parenting style, the average quality of early child experiences increases.1

About the SES Index

What is the SES Index? The SES Index provides one value for each neighbourhood that summarizes its SES based on the components that are most important in predicting developmental vulnerability.

How was the SES Index created?About 60 theme-based components were used to model how SES relates to vulnerability on the different EDI scales for HELP’s 478 neighbourhoods. Statistical analysis revealed a distinct set of components that relate to vulnerability for each EDI scale. The eight strongest components over all scales were chosen to form the HELP SES Index.

Each component contributes equally to the Index.
