More than 1,000 people with disabilities were supported on the pathway to employment through the Ability to Work Fund over the past three years.
The scheme is a €1.5 million fund created by Rethink Ireland in partnership with State Street and the Government to open pathways to employment by investing in organisations that provide training, upskilling and education.
Since the launch of the fund in 2021, the four awarded organisations have implemented a range of initiatives and supports including mentoring programmes, as well as the development of skills through literacy, numeracy and IT classes.
