Employment has a lot more to it than just going out and getting a job. Fortunately, there are supports, information and resources out there to help people with disabilities get, and keep, employment.

  • Employment and Disability Research Project - The Canadian Abilities Foundation (CAF) undertook a major study that aims to resolve a longstanding dilemma - why employers say they can't find qualified people with disabilities to fill job vacancies, when tens of thousands of people with disabilities say they are unable to find work. We are confident that, through the study, new and better connections can be built between these parties so that employers can meet their human resources objectives, and people with disabilities can find the jobs they've been looking for. See the Neglected or Hidden Research Project for more information.
