Start or Grow Your Business With Confidence
Welcome to the Rural Alberta Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program (EDP) — an online entrepreneurship initiative delivered by the Community Futures Network of Alberta and funded by the Government of Canada.
If you live in rural Alberta and have a disability, long-term health condition, neurodivergence, or other health-related barrier that affects your ability to start or maintain a business—or just to learn about running a business--you're in the right place.
We believe that entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we’re here — to help you explore your business goals, embrace your strengths, and build a path to success on your own terms.

EDP offers personalized online coaching support, resources, and guidance tailored to your needs. Whether you're just getting started or looking to grow your business, we’re here to walk alongside you.
