Refugees don’t just rebuild their lives, they help rebuild economies, and we must stop denying this.
They start businesses, fill labour gaps, and bring global experience to Canada’s workforce.

Want innovation in your team?
Hire someone who’s rebuilt a life from scratch.
Refugees bring the kind of creativity no course can teach! Canada has ample evidence of this, and we must embrace the value of international experience that comes with our refugee population.

Underemployed refugees often remain in jobs that don’t utilize their skills. Jumpstart Refugee Talent sees this as a loss to Canada’s potential and equips refugees to find meaningful work that makes our country stronger and empowers a member of our collective population.

From construction sites to classrooms, kitchens to clinics - refugees are helping build Canada every day.
Employment isn’t charity. It’s collaboration, and Canada needs it.

[Jumpstart Refugee Talent @JumpstartCDN]

Refugees arrive with more than stories - they bring solutions to gaps in the Canadian workforce.
They’ve navigated crisis, adapted fast, and learned resilience the hard way.
That’s not just strength to admire, that’s employability that will empower the Canadian economy.

Does Canada need refugee skills in the workforce? Our aging population is one of many factors that proves we do.

[Jumpstart Refugee Talent @JumpstartCDN]

#Refugees are not a crisis. It's when we refuse to acknowledge the talent and skills they bring to #Canada, that we contribute to a real crisis : the gaps in our workforce.

Talent does not disappear at the border, but opportunity often does. At Jumpstart we understand the value of mentorship beyond a tool for adjustment. Mentorship unlocks talent that systems have been ignoring! Learn more about our program: https://t.co/zt6rR2tNmX

Refugee professionals’ benefit from someone in their field who can provide guidance navigating the workforce in Canada, and Canadian professionals want meaningful ways to share their expertise. Simple. That's why Jumpstart started here: https://t.co/eMAUvQaWpP

[Jumpstart Refugee Talent @JumpstartCDN]

Every refugee carries a piece of the world. When they work here, Canada gains a bridge to the world.

Mentorship is the origin story at Jumpstart. We continue to expand the program, and it continues to succeed, because simple solutions are the most powerful. Canada needs skills, refugees bring skills - and mentors help the two connect.
