Programs and Funding Sources

There are provincial programs, funding sources and federally funded initiatives available to help businesses across Canada become more accessible and inclusive.

Some examples include:

  • Help for costs associated with implementing workplace adaptations, assessments or accommodations.
  • Grants to test innovative ideas that make it easier for people with disabilities to participate in the workforce.
  • Wage subsidies or paid training for people with disabilities (i.e. co-ops, fixed-term internships, and work experiences).
  • Apprenticeship training and industry-specific training that aligns with labour market shortages.
  • Courses and training for talent pools (i.e. first aid and food safety training).

Land Acknowledgement
The Community Business Development Corporation (CBDC) Restigouche respectfully acknowledges that the Hire for Talent project was developed in Mi'gma'gi, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’gmaq. We also recognize the Wolastoqiyik and Peskotomuhkati peoples as the past, present and future caretakers of this land. This territory is encompassed by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship, which remain in effect today. Although developed on this land, the Hire for Talent project extends across the territories of various Indigenous peoples throughout Turtle Island.
