SUMMARY:The 11th Annual Mayors Luncheon; Equitable Employment Summit
DESCRIPTION:This 11th Annual Mayors Luncheon Summit is an esteemed event that is not just a gathering but a powerful platform to accelerate progress\, forge meaningful connections\, and cultivate leadership in the realm of inclusive employment. It serves as a unique opportunity for attendees to engage with and learn from other employers and leaders dedicated to inclusive hiring practices. \nThe inception of the Mayor’s Luncheon traces back to a legacy project that followed the hosting of the 2012 Special Olympics Winter Games by St. Albert\, marking the beginning of what would become a cornerstone event for advocacy and inclusion. Over the past seven years\, the luncheon has seen remarkable growth\, evolving into a must-attend event that now welcomes over 200 guests annually. Its success is a testament to the collective effort and commitment of communities across Alberta to embrace and advocate for diversity and inclusion in the workplace. \nMayors from across Alberta\, and even some from beyond\, make it a point to attend every year\, underscoring the event’s significance and reach. Notably\, the Capital Region’s mayors\, especially Mayor Cathy Heron of St. Albert\, have shown exceptional dedication to this cause. Their ongoing support and leadership have been instrumental in enhancing the luncheon year after year\, ensuring it remains a vibrant\, impactful\, and enriching experience for all involved. \nThis year\, as we prepare to host another Mayor’s Luncheon\, we are filled with anticipation and excitement for the opportunity to continue building on this legacy. We look forward to welcoming new and returning guests\, sharing insights\, celebrating achievements in inclusive employment\, and setting the stage for future advancements. Together\, we are making strides towards a more inclusive society\, one where every individual\, regardless of disability\, has the opportunity to contribute\, participate\, and lead. \n  \nLearn more and register HERE
