Help ESNS provide workplace training skills to individuals with disabilities. New Leaf Enterprises is a Social Enterprise that provides an opportunity for Nova Scotians with disabilities to participate in skill development and workplace training. The need for secure and fulfilling employment is important for Nova Scotians with disabilities. Learning new skills and bringing those skills to a workplace increases a person’s independence and self-confidence, while decreasing social isolation for people living with disabilities. Yet, according to a 2018 Statistics Canada’s Participation and Limitation Survey, 59 percent of adults with disabilities in Canada were unemployed or not in the workforce. For able-bodied adults, that number is only 27 percent. We also know that the more complex the disability, the higher the rate of unemployment. New Leaf Enterprises exists to change that trend.

Take PART
$25 CAD

Contribute towards a child's participation in an inclusive sport. Take PART (Physically Accessible Recreation Today) provides Nova Scotians with disabilities an opportunity to participate in recreation and sport programs. Most of us understand the great benefits derived from participating in team sports. It allows us to stay fit, share in a mutual passion, and create lasting social and community relationships. Statistics show significantly lower levels of participation among physically disabled persons, compared to those who are able bodied. Physical activity is known to reduce pain levels and instances of secondary health complications while improving mental health. It’s also shown to help overcome social isolation and establish more self-reliance.
