Creating Inclusive Workplaces for All

Employment inclusion means that all persons experiencing disability have equal opportunity to secure, to sustain, and to advance in meaningful, competitively paid employment. 

The Canadian Association for Supported Employment (CASE) is a national member association for the supported employment sector.

At CASE, we work with employment service providers, employers, community partners, and other interest holders in communities across Canada toward employment inclusion of persons experiencing disability. We strive to facilitate full participation in the labour force by offering resources, expertise, research, and support to service providers.
