Serving the Yukon since 1976
We have worked diligently to erase stigma, promote inclusion and help engage and empower individuals with diverse needs and abilities for over 45 years. Our organization is quick to respond to the needs of our diverse community, working together with the government, employers and partners to bring empowering opportunities for career advancement, independent living and all-rounded support.
Hire someone with diverse abilities
At Opportunities Yukon, we work with prospective employers from all industries to connect them with an expansive, yet untapped workforce of people with diverse needs and abilities. We facilitate these connections by providing targeted skills training to job seekers, and offer a bank of knowledge, experience and resources to ensure employers have the tools necessary to successfully hire and onboard these employees. Our goal is to build a stronger, more inclusive community that creates meaningful space for everyone, regardless of their abilities or background.
