Job Posting: Labour Market Facilitator
The PEI Association for Community Living (PEI ACL) is seeking a Labour Market Facilitator for its Ready, Willing and Able project.
Full time contractual position until January 2018 with a possibility of extension.
The Canadian Association for Community Living (CACL) and the Canadian Autism Spectrum Disorders Alliance (CASDA) are very proud to be partners in the delivery of the Ready Willing and Able (RWA) initiative. RWA project funded by the Government of Canada, is designed to increase the workforce participation of people with intellectual disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
RWA will accomplish this by reaching out to, and engaging, employers and increasing their understanding of the value and economic benefits to hiring people with intellectual disabilities and ASD. RWA will help employers realize that these working aged adults represent a significantly untapped labour source that could very much assist in addressing their staffing needs. RWA will connect these employers who are ready, willing and able to hire to local employment agencies who are supporting adults with intellectual disabilities and ASD who are equally ‘ready willing and able’ to work.
The Labour Market Facilitator position will work to promote social change and increase the employment level of people with developmental disabilities. This position will develop relationships with and collaborate with employers, community employment agencies, autism organizations, local ACLs, government and community agencies to create meaningful and equal opportunity for employment for people with developmental disabilities.
