Skills Ontario receives the 2025 Leading on Diversity – Community Award

Ariel Deutschmann · May 30, 2025 ·

Skills Ontario is proud to receive the 2025 Leading on Diversity – Community Award from the Toronto Community Benefits Network (TCBN).

Presented to only 10 recipients, Skills Ontario was chosen for its work and commitment to community benefit programs through its longstanding investment in workforce development initiatives that prioritize equity-deserving groups, including women, Indigenous communities, newcomers, racialized youth, and persons with disabilities.

The award was presented to the Director of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Indigenous Relations, Ashley Cuglietta, at the Canadian Building Diversity Awards & Community Benefits Summit in Toronto.

“We are grateful the nominations committee has selected Skills Ontario to be one of 10 recipients for the Leading on Diversity – Community Award, and for the opportunity to highlight the work we do to help break down barriers and foster an inclusive environment in the skilled trades,” said Cuglietta about the award.
