Individuals with disabilities are achieving their career goals through Champions.

What Community Leaders Are Saying About Champions

Steve Snyder, President & CEO, TransAlta

"We believe getting involved with Champions is the right thing to do.  Through our sponsorship we hope to increase employer awareness so many more companies can realize the benefits of employing this group of qualified but untapped pool of talent and skills."

Jim Gray, former Chairman, Canadian Hunter Exploration

"Significant social and economic change happens when committed leaders become catalysts and demonstrate a new way of doing business.  I encourage all business and community leaders to learn about Champions and support them through sponsorship, scholarships, internships, and by employing one or more of their clients.  I guarantee the benefits will far exceed your expectations."

Jim McLaughlin, Alberta Employment, Immigration and Industry (AEII)

"Persons with disabilities offer Alberta's labour force a large and relatively untapped pool of intellectual capital and skilled labour.  Champions is a unique collaboration between disability agencies, government and the private sector bringing together key players for the sole purpose of helping Albertans with disabilities find meaningful employment.  It has the critical mass to provide quality services and achieve greater economies of scale than would be possible for any agency on its own."
