The PROUD Project/Le Project PROUD is a non-profit research hub dedicated to investigating the barriers to meaningful employment faced by disabled adults. As the only 100% disability led research centre in Canada, PROUD produces research that supports the inclusion of qualified disabled employees in the workforce. We offer efficacious, evidence-based recommendations to employers, governments, policy makers, educational institutions, and advocacy organizations to improve employee equity and access to dignified work for all.
