The MentorAbility Initiative

Are you a job seeker experiencing disability? Would you like to meet people to learn more about a career that interests you? Consider participating in a MentorAbility mentorship!

Working with the MentorAbility Canada team, you will be matched with an employer or mentor for a short mentoring experience. During the experience, you will learn more about that employer’s workplace and different careers in their industry. 

You will be supported throughout the process by skilled employment professionals. MentorAbility is free. It is not a job. But it can help you to learn more about jobs that interest you and about possible career paths.
