We have made it our mission to help people with disabilities break down barriers to employment.
CCRW is here to support you every step of the way with our comprehensive Employment Services. We believe that everyone deserves equal opportunities, and we are dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities thrive in their professional lives.
Our Employment Services serve 3 main purposes:
1. To support job seekers (across Canada) with all types of disability, who wish to find meaningful employment
2. To support businesses who wish to hire employees who are persons with disabilities
3. To share our resources, experiences, and skills in order to make employment opportunities accessible for every candidate
Job Seekers and Workers
CCRW is a full-service employment organization that uses an intersectional approach to offer support and training for job seekers and workers with disabilities.
Employers
CCRW offers resources and expertise to employers looking to hire inclusively and create a more accessible workplace.
Supporting Red Seal Trades
Working with the Trades we break down barriers for people with disabilities and other equity-deserving identities, such as women and Indigenous youth, to train, test, and secure employment in 55 Trades.
