Empowering individuals with disabilities for future employment opportunities through interactive learning delivered in a café and market.
Melly's is a registered Canadian charity and not-for-profit Workplace, Café and Market.
Here, we implement Melly's Interactive Development Program, designed for teens and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities preparing to pursue employment. Our comprehensive curriculum includes 16 modules focused on workplace skills and 16 pillars dedicated to personal development, laying the foundation for participants to enter the workforce. The program unfolds within our café and market, allowing participants to immediately apply learned skills in authentic interactions with community members, fostering confidence and providing personalized support as they progress toward their objectives.
Beyond skill development, Melly's emphasizes creating opportunities for participants to forge friendships, establish connections, and engage with their communities through various activities and events.
Our mission is to amplify the inclusion of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the workforce and their community.
Our vision is clear: to walk into any establishment and see people with disabilities participating as both staff and customers.
Melly's words, "I want to be a part of everything, just like everybody else. A part of life," succinctly captures what we aspire to achieve with Melly's.
With your support, we can continue this vital work.
