Register Now: There's a massive untapped talent pool that you can help us deliver to you.

Helping employers benefit from a larger talent pool, that is the goal of The Making Cent$ of Abilities Coalition, a partnership focused on providing businesses and organizations with an opportunity to tap into a larger hiring pool by providing resources to hire and retain people with disabilities.
 
In order to aid in the development of these resources the partnership is looking for employers who would be willing to attend an upcoming focus group to share their perceived challenges, misconceptions and concerns surrounding the possibility of hiring individuals with disabilities.
The benefits from tapping into these candidates from this large talent pool are substantial. In 2017, 22% of the Canadian population (one in five Canadians) had one or more disabilities. That is approximately 6.2 million people.
