YOUR future. YOUR way.
Community Futures Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program can help you build your business dream.
Disabilities aren’t always visible and more than 60% of Canadians are working with some form of barrier or health condition. Everyone’s needs differ and we recognize that only YOU know what works best for YOU.
Community Futures Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program (EDP) helps people working with barriers or health conditions to start and grow businesses.
