OUR MISSION
Less than 60% of the six million+ Canadians with a disability have jobs.
Melly's Workplace is a registered charity that works for adults over the age of 21 with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
We provide the support and experiences that they are asking for through Melly's Market + Café, our not-for-profit café, which is open to the public.
Within this space, we deliver our exclusive Interactive Development Program. Our program delivers 16 modules supporting the fundamental training and skill-building that adults with disabilities are asking for.
They want to challenge themselves in an environment that is safe, inclusive and lets them learn at a pace that supports their own growth and development.
Melly's Workplace is a registered charity and will provide an official receipt for income tax purposes.(Charitable registration 83808 1552 RR0001)
