Studies suggest that inclusive workplaces enjoy increased productivity and innovation. Yet, there’s still an employment gap: Manitoba’s employment rate for working-age individuals with disabilities (64.3%) remains significantly lower than that for the general population (80.5%) (Statistics Canada).<\/p>\n

MentorAbility Manitoba, led by WASO (Work And Social Opportunities), is tackling this challenge head on. The program unlocks potential for persons experiencing disability, paving the way to fulfilling careers informed through mentorship. But MentorAbility Manitoba isn’t just about supporting job seekers; it’s also about empowering employers to build more inclusive, productive, and successful workplaces.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mentorship provides a safe space for mentees to experiment, discover new areas of interest, and gain valuable knowledge about different industries. “It can give someone the opportunity to see an area of industry that they\u2019ve never experienced and be able to gain knowledge and understanding of a particular field,” explains Cam.\u00a0<\/p>

This exploration ignites a passion for learning and opens doors to new possibilities, paving the way for fulfilling careers.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mark, who was a newcomer to Canada, found fulfilling employment after having participated in a MentorAbility mentorship. His experience highlights the program’s impact on supporting employment, building self-esteem, and cultivating a sense of belonging for persons experiencing disability.\u00a0<\/p>

Mark\u2019s mentor, the owner of a local chocolate bakery, aptly remarked, \u201cHe is so proud of his work. We found the perfect match.\u201d<\/p>

This successful mentorship underscores the program’s ability to connect employers with individuals who possess untapped potential and a willingness to work and to contribute.<\/p>
