At AKG Canada, we are the first point of contact for people accessing employment services through this program.
We receive referrals and connect directly with individuals, or respond when someone reaches out to us.
Our role is to understand each individual’s situation and connect them to the services and supports that best align with their needs, goals, and location.
Employment Service Providers and community organizations deliver support directly. AKG Canada coordinates referrals and connections to services across the program.
