Work matters:
We all need a fair shot at getting ahead with a job that:
- Supports a household.
- Builds community ties and meaningful connections.
- Provides purpose, structure and self-esteem.
- Provides an opportunity for ongoing learning and growth.
For people with barriers, work:
- Changes how people see you.
- Builds hope for a different kind of future than previously imagined.
The campaign is dedicated to ensuring that the dignity of work is relevant in everyone’s life—independent of their circumstances.
