Neil Squire Society’s Prairie Region hosted the 4th Annual Job Fair for People with Disabilities on April 8, 2013. The job fair was held at the University of Regina’s Kinesiology and Health Sciences centre (new window). There were over 40 businesses prepared to hire people with disabilities, and approximately 200 job seekers with disabilities that attended.
“We didn’t come to find people who fit our needs, rather we came to learn more, stretch ourselves, meet people with different abilities and imagine the possibilities,” says an employer at the event.
At the end of the event numerous amounts of job seekers said that they already had job interviews lined up!
Thank you to everyone who attended the event. It was a very successful and we look forward to next year’s 5th annual job fair.
