Based in Raleigh, 321 currently employs over 50 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). They are the ones roasting the coffee, taking the orders, and making the lattes.
The company was founded in 2017 by Lindsay Wrege and Michael Evans. The two met during their freshman year as Park Scholars at NC State University. They had the vision to build a company founded on inclusion.
80% of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are unemployed. @drink321coffeeβs mission is to change this.
These are amazing π pic.twitter.com/MVJ5g4HzmC
And remember frontline folks working at participating businesses β as well as those that arenβt β are trained in the art of hospitality, not babysitting So... you know, be cool
Drinks arenβt allowed in government buildings, churches, and city-owned property (e.g., parking decks and lots) unless they have been designated as eligible
Look for window clings in storefronts of participating businesses Alcoholic beverages must be in approved cups and sold by a bar/restaurant It's about responsible fun, giving folks more flexible ways to enjoy downtown; all other drinking laws are still in effect
Starting Dec 1, 2022, 7 days a week from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Durhamites and visitors can responsibly enjoy alcoholic beverages served to-go at participating businesses while walking outside in the new social district π»
