MentorAbility Alberta is sponsoring the Indigitech Destiny Summit for the third year.

It's a day about technology for social impact, exploring how AI, fintech, and data sovereignty can drive economic empowerment and cultural preservation through an Indigenous perspective.

That mission is one we share: making sure everyone has a place in the economy.

We have tickets to gift. If you'd like to attend, reach out to us at: [email protected]

How did you get into the career you're in now? Did you study for it, or find your way in some other way?

Think back. What would have made it easier? Probably someone who had already done it, to answer your questions and show you the ropes.

What do the stripes mean?

Designed by Ann Magill in 2019 and updated in 2021, the Disability Pride Flag was made visually safe for people with visually triggered disabilities.

Red, for physical disabilities.
Gold, for neurodivergence.
White, for invisible and undiagnosed disabilities.
Blue, for psychiatric disabilities.
Green, for sensory disabilities.

Together, the colours show that disability spans every border.
