ABOUT US

In a rapidly evolving corporate landscape, organizations need to address the unique challenges faced by youth of color to drive meaningful change and build long-term success. Statistics reveal that:

Youth of color in Canada face an unemployment rate of 24.4%—more than double that of non-racialized youth at 11.9%, despite having similar qualifications as their caucasian peers.

These systemic barriers hinder both individual growth and corporate innovation.

At IMDOINGIT, we specialize in designing tailored HR solutions that align with the needs of POC employees while advancing your organization’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) goals. Our programs are not just fun for participants; they are transformative experiences that create measurable results.

The program is part of the agency’s multi-year DEI strategy intended to drive meaningful, sustainable equity within its network and a more inclusive industry community overall.”
