Most businesses focus on gaining market share, customer base, and profits. Denver’s Brewability Lab is different; it hires persons with disabilities in a sincere effort to integrate them into the community. The owner, Tiffany Fixter, had previously conducted a day program for adults with developmental disabilities, so she understood the needs of that aspect of the community. She has developed a business where groups of people who would not ordinarily meet can mix in a safe setting. As a result, both the staff and the customers have broadened their horizons. We need more businesses like this where the social benefits are more than an afterthought. This is where a business owner lives her values, and you can’t beat that. Read all about it here in this brief article by the Denver Post.

That is simply amazing! It must have changed so many lives since it began – of not just the ones working there, but also the ones visiting. People with disabilities need to be included in society to help them live fuller, contented lives.

The use of colors to make the work easier for those “beertenders” is so innovative!
I like this “thinking-out-of-the-box” mentality which goes a long way in helping differently-abled people. Hopefully, more and more companies will latch onto this all-inclusive kind of business approach.
Thank you for sharing! 🙂

Oh, this is terrific! I love that there are SO many ways provided for everyone to work there: color-coding the beers, pictures, Braille, and more. She’s definitely not trying to fit everyone into the same mold.

No, she seemed perfectly informed to do it the right way. How cool is that!

Inclusion is a beautiful thing. We all learn something from getting up close and personal with the people we never would have thought of spending time with on our own. Thanks for sharing!

I think it’s the best way to help others: giving them a chance to help themselves.

Yes. What’s sad is that it takes a special person to give them a chance.
