Welcome to today’s episode! We have two very special guests joining us from Albemarle, NC. Dawn Allen from GHA Autism Supports and Alan Cremisi, who is supported by GHA, from Second Street Sundries.
Alan is a talented barista and coffee master who has been with Second Street
Sundries since they first opened their doors in 2015. He has a passion for
coffee and has developed a deep understanding of the coffee-making process,
from bean to cup. He loves his job and the relationships he has built with
customers, but also has a secret coffee bar in his own apartment that he says
makes an even better cup of coffee.
Dawn has been the CEO of GHA Autism Supports for almost 40 years, providing services and opportunities for individuals with autism. In this episode we talk about how GHA and Second Street Sundries work together to
support individuals like Alan, and how they are also a part of a larger
international network, learning from and sharing their experiences with
professionals from around the world including Japan and Denmark. Join us on a journey to uncover the inspiring stories and destinations that make our world feel a little bit smaller.
