More than a nonprofit—it’s a movement.
Founded in the spring of 2024, The Connect Café exists to close the gaps in workforce development by walking alongside individuals navigating the dual barriers of race and disability or disabling conditions. Our mission is to create real access to opportunity by offering support that leads to meaningful employment and long-term success.
Rooted in our three core pillars—connection, community, and contribution—we’re building pathways that empower individuals and transform lives.
Connection
Building intentional relationships that support personal and professional growth.
Community
Creating safe, inclusive spaces where individuals can learn, share, and grow together.
Contribution
Unlocking purpose and empowering individuals to actively engage in work, service, and society.
