WHAT WE BELIEVE:

Our non-profit coffee shop in Jacksonville, FL, is a destination for others with special needs and their families. We desire to create a community of acceptance and joy where abilities and friendships grow one cup of coffee and conversation at a time. 

WHAT WE DO:

Happy Brew provides employment, job training, and leadership opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental differences, in a community cafe where hope is shared. We offer a vocational program so that each participant can learn, grow and work in the way that best meets his or her needs.

"Finding community for my daughter is the greatest gift we can give her."
Elise Nowikowski

Only 13% of individuals with intellectual disabilities in Florida are employed.
