Listen "WYCE's Community Connection (12-25-22): The wonderful backstory of Beer City Dog Biscuits."
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we we learn everything about the start-up and wonderful mission of Beer City Dog Biscuits from Jennifer Romain. Operations Manager with Beer City Dog Biscuits.
In 2018, Tad and Suzanne Wilcox and David and Leslie Hooker formed a nonprofit 501(c)3, HW Living Ventures dba Beer City Dog Biscuits, on behalf of their adult sons, both of whom have disabilities.
Jennifer told us that a vibrant living community for those with developmental disabilities is the long-term vision of this nonprofit. The immediate need is to provide them with an opportunity to be productive every day.
The Beer City Dog Biscuits business is tailored to meet the unique abilities of each volunteer and employee to enable them to participate in all aspects of the business. They are assembling, baking, labeling, and weighing bags, packing, and delivering orders.
Leadership volunteers assist and guide in the process; each stage is intentionally created to support project-based learning and work skill development that enables "Brew Bakers" to learn valuable life skills.
