The newest MentorAbility Hub to join our national network covers the vast area of the Northwest Territories (NWT), a singular region that’s rich geographically and culturally. While challenges remain to increase workplace inclusion, more employers are recognizing the value of diverse perspectives and abilities.

The MentorAbility – NWT Hub will help to connect more job seekers and employers in a region with thriving industries and labour shortages. Gordon Ross, Manager of the CDETNO NWT Career Centre, and Lynn Foley, Executive Director of Inclusion NWT, are collaborating to co-lead the new MentorAbility Hub in the NWT.
