TBDC is accepting applications for their Biz Futures Self-Employment Program. Designed to help people with disabilities launch their own businesses, this program is supported by the Ontario Disability Support Program – Employment Supports (ODSP-ES).

This robust program covers business setup, marketing and sales, financials and business
operations. Participants complete a comprehensive business plan during the initial phase of the
program. On-going advisory support is provided as clients build and implement their business
plans.

The program is presently delivered virtually from TBDC’s Front Street West office. To participate
in the program, individuals:

• complete a program application
• meet with the program manager to review the viability of the proposed business idea
• and go over the program elements
• obtain an ODSP-ES program referral

For more information about the BIZ Futures Program and how it could benefit you, please contact TBDC’s Program Manager at bizfutures@tbdc.com or call TBDC at 416-345-9437.
