To mark National AccessAbility Week, here’s a reminder:

Did you know that 1 in 5 workers in Canada lives with a disability? (Statistics Canada, 2022)

Employment service agencies play an important role in supporting job seekers who face barriers to employment. By connecting individuals with opportunities, advocating for inclusive workplaces, and educating employers about the value of inclusive hiring, we help create a workforce where accessibility and accommodation are built in, not fought for.

Our goal is simple: to advance accessibility today and help build a more inclusive future for generations to come. ❤️💙💚💛
