TEAM Work Self-Employment

If you have an idea for a small business, would like to expand and grow an existing business, or would like to learn how to use your skills to become self employed, we can help. TEAM Work Self-Employment offers a variety of supports designed to help Nova Scotian entrepreneurs who are 18 or older and living with a disability. If you have the drive, determination, and opportunity, then a disability shouldn’t stand between you and business success!
