NDMS Publications
Basic Employability Skills Development for Nunavummiut with Disabilities – A guide for developing employability skills curriculum for people with disabilities. This guide is geared towards people with intellectual disabilities and/or severe mental health issues. To see the full curriculum, please visit www.sivuariit.com
Social Enterprise Guide – A social enterprise is a business that has a social purpose as its primary mission. Research shows that social enterprises are particularly suited to providing employment to marginalized groups, such as people with disabilities. This guide was created specifically for those interested in establishing social enterprises to employ people with disabilities living in the north. The guide is based off of our experience running the Inclusion Cafe, a catering business staffed by our clients in Iqaluit. An executive summary of this guide is available in Inuktitut (Executive Summary Inuktitut) and French (Executive Summary French)
NDMS Inclusive Employment Roundtable 2016 Report – In September 2016, NDMS held a roundtable on Inclusive Employment during the Nunavut Trade Show and Conference in Iqaluit. This session was attended by 40 participants from across the territory. This document compiles the discussions and issues from this event.
