A non-profit giving adults with autism a place to work finally has a home. Blissful Seeds just opened a brick-and-mortar store in Poway.
POWAY, CA — For nearly three years now, a nonprofit employing adults with autism and other disabilities, has not had its own space to call home.Blissful Seeds, a nonprofit started in 2020, just opened a brick-and-mortar store in Poway.
"All this is a dream come true because it is now the way I've always dreamt about it," said Rita Saliba, the CEO and founder."It really changed my life, I can do something other than just sit at home and do nothing. I can have a job," said Zoe Berl-Hahan, 27, who has worked at the nonprofit for about two years.
The nonprofit was able to sign a 3-year lease for the space thanks to a grant awarded by the Foundation for Developmental Disabilities, according to Saliba."People are rallying behind us so we can make it bigger and better and maybe down the line serve way more people than we are serving now," said Saliba.
