OUR PURPOSE

Futureworx Society is a non profit community based organization structured to help people with diverse needs identify their strengths and goals, develop skills and achieve success in school, work, and life. We offer an expansive range of employment, educational, and training programs, as well as, business, corporate and customized services that innovatively respond to the needs of our community, our province and our partners across Canada and internationally.

Futureworx is now a Nova Scotia Works Employment Services Centre. We help job seekers and employers navigate a range of programs - from career planning, job searches and on-the-job development to recruitment, planning and HR support.
