How a Calgary-based job board builds pathways to inclusion in Canada’s labour market
Today marks the start of Disability Employment Awareness Month (DEAM), highlighting the barriers facing Albertans with disabilities in the workplace.
The province’s initiatives aim to promote inclusive hiring practices and successes.
While many job seekers encounter stigma, underemployment and limited opportunities, one Calgary-based job board aims to shift the conversation.
A space for inclusion
Founded in 2023 by Cintia Lutz, Able & Available sets itself apart from traditional job boards by providing a more “filtered” space where every posting comes from an employer committed to opportunity and inclusion.
“You’re not just showing job seekers that you’re inclusive, you’re showing your own staff they are inclusive and that can create a better culture for everyone,” said Lutz.
The importance of this awareness makes DEAM life-changing for job seekers and employers, offering a connection that focuses on the overall well-being of those with visible, invisible, temporary and permanent disabilities.
Lutz says that she has seen companies close job posts within three days due to the success of applicants.

It’s inspiring to see initiatives that focus on inclusion in the Canadian workplace—breaking barriers and creating equal opportunities is so important. Stories like this motivate positive change and awareness. On a lighter note, I’ve also been exploring fun Dumb and Dumber suits for themed events—they’re quirky, playful, and always a crowd favorite.
