Speakers Guild

Our Ambassadors with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) meet with potential employers to discuss and demonstrate the value of hiring people with IDD. This group also speaks at meetings and events to advocate for people with IDD and to emphasize the incredible value of work and inclusion.


Buddies

When our amazing friends with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) time out of school (age 22 in Florida), they often lose the social interaction opportunity that school environments provide. Our Inclusion Revolution Buddy Team helps fill that gap by connecting people with IDD with their typically-developing peers. 

Culinary Team

This ever-growing group of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities have completed The Haven / Rise Up culinary training program and are properly prepared to enter the culinary and restaurant workforce.

Donate

People with intellectual and developmental disabilities spend years in school and in job skills training programs preparing for the “real world.” As they time out of school, they’re excited, prepared, and hopeful for the chance to have a job. Unfortunately, most are never given the opportunity. Please consider a donation to help give our amazing friends a shot.
