“If an employee comes in and sees a person with a disability doing a job, doing a really good job, they’ll say ‘You know what? If they can overcome all that stuff, I should be able to even do more.’ They can be a motivating factor to make some change in the workplace."

Danny Brennan, entrepreneurial programs manager ~ Toronto Business Centre
