About Us
The Co-mmunity Shop is more than just a shop; it’s a social enterprise built to reflect the values of inclusion, creativity, and purpose. Located in East Vancouver, our storefront offers meaningful and flexible work experiences for young adults with intellectual disabilities, while also serving as a vibrant community space.
At the Co-mmunity Shop, every item tells a story, we take pride:
- Handmade and thoughtfully curated products created by local artists and vendors who align with our mission.
- A growing line of goods made by Co-Leidoscope community members.
- A place where community members can shop with intention, knowing their purchase supports inclusive employment opportunities and empowers local creators.
Our aim
- Bridge the gap between meaningful work and accessible opportunities.
- Foster belonging by creating a space where everyone is welcome to contribute, shop, and connect.
- Educate the public about inclusive business practices and the value of interdependence.
Whether you’re stopping by for a handmade good, interested in selling your products, or hoping to collaborate, we invite you to be a part of this growing movement.
