IRIS is pleased to be working with People First of Canada and Chronicle Analytics to launch an important and timely survey. The survey’s aim is to gain insights about the transition from sheltered work to inclusive employment in communities across Canada.
Background to this Survey:
People with a developmental disability have among the lowest employment rates of any population group in Canada – only 30% of working-age adults are employed. The purpose of this survey is to:
1) improve understanding about the range and type of volunteer, training and employment programs in Canada delivered by local agencies or organizations mandated to support people with a developmental disability;
2) learn about what providers are doing to improve employment outcomes, including during the COVID-19 pandemic; and,
3) gain insight from agencies about what assistance they need to improve employment outcomes for people they support.
Learn more about this initiative by visiting People First of Canada.
Thank you for completing the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/PFC_2020_Survey
