Canada’s Top Employers for Young People is an annual award that recognizes employers who provide the nation’s best workplaces and programs for young people at the beginning of their careers. Employers are selected based on their ability to draw interest and retain younger employees and for the availability of benefits, opportunities for co-op or work-study, mentorship and training programs, as well as career management programs.

Holland Bloorview offers many opportunities and benefits for young professionals and students, including a number of programs designed specifically to help youth with disabilities develop skills to enter the workforce.
