This is a unique space where the flavour of the bean is combined with the essence of inclusion. This café not only seeks to improve the lives of young people with intellectual disabilities, but also actively promotes their physical and emotional well-being and their preparation for full integration into society.
It is a refuge full of joy, hope and love, where each visit becomes an act of support for diversity and equal opportunities. The objective of the ‘Create Unidos Café’ is to train the young people of the Create Unidos corporation in essential skills for the workplace, such as preparing drinks, customer service and other administrative tasks. This process not only provides them with practical knowledge, but also strengthens their self-esteem and shows them that they are capable of achieving any goal they set for themselves.
Daniel Puerta, bar assistant at the café, shares his experience: “It has been a very enriching experience because you learn a lot from them. They are people who are up to anything, they are very intelligent and they achieve everything they set out to do.” This testimony reflects the positive impact that the café has not only on the young people who work there, but also on those who visit them and get involved in this inclusive initiative.
In addition to its educational role, this place plays a crucial therapeutic role. It helps students develop their social and communication skills, facilitating their integration into the community and preparing them for future challenges. Each cup of coffee served in this place represents a step closer to the inclusion and empowerment of people with intellectual disabilities.
