In the heart of Nebraska, Rose Cat Coffee Co. is brewing more than just coffee. We're crafting a community that champions inclusivity, fosters connections, and empowers individuals with IDD.
80% of individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) are unemployed nationwide.
At Rose Cat Coffee Company and Reading Society we are actively seeking to decrease that statistic one employment opportunity at a time, and designing a space where…
- Relationships are built.
- Employees feel seen, valued, included, and loved by their community.
- Employees can take pride and ownership in what they do and fully realize their own potential.
- Joy can seep into every cup of coffee served and out the doors into daily interactions with others.
- Kindness is spread and inclusion is not only talked about but felt and fully embraced.
