Enabling Change.
Supporting disability inclusion goes beyond usual measures. When employees feel supported and included, they're more likely to talk about their disabilities, which increases loyalty, retention, and morale. Each year, the Pledge to Measure encourages leaders across Canada to create a workplace where all staff can succeed in a safe, inclusive environment, driving growth for the business and the community of people it supports.

"We joined the Pledge to Measure because I fundamentally believe that every person deserves to be seen, heard, and valued. That’s non-negotiable for me, and I see this value reflected in my team members as well.
As a neurodiverse business leader, I believe it's essential to create space for people to share ideas in their own way. This strengthens trust and connection, builds a stronger team, and ultimately creates more effective learning programs. The Pledge to Measure is one way we’re putting these values into action, and we’re proud to take part in this important work."

West Coast Wildflowers Testimonial
"Since taking the Pledge, we’ve seen a growing culture of trust and openness. More employees feel comfortable naming their access needs, and we’re learning to respond in ways that are practical, culturally appropriate, and rooted in reciprocity. Disability inclusion, to us, is about restoring right relations—with land, with each other, and with ourselves. It’s not performative, it’s part of our healing journey as a business and as a community.”
