And this brings us to the conclusion.
In those examples, the results speak for themselves. To allow persons with disabilities to be part of the solution to the labour shortage problem, we would like to respectfully recommend that the committee maintain the Opportunities Fund for Persons with Disabilities, because this program makes it possible to develop projects that meet the needs of both the persons with disabilities and the employers.
Given that, over the years, SPHERE-Québec has built an effective network of partners, has developed a variety of tools that facilitate the employment integration process of persons with disabilities and has become closely acquainted with its clients, we recommend including SPHERE-Québec in the renewal process of the terms and conditions for the Opportunities Fund for Persons with Disabilities.
Thank you.
