Rehoboth Rehoboth Christian Ministries is a non-profit organisation that supports adults with developmental disabilities. In March 2017 Chris Bastin and Reid Makowecki who both attend the Vocational Day program in Stony Plain began working for Coffee News, delivering papers, twice a week to local businesses.
As soon as the Papers arrive at Rehoboth on a Monday, Reid, and Chris, with great anticipation take the lead. Carrying out their work very seriously, they both retrieve the boxes and begin sorting and counting; ensuring each company has the correct amount to be delivered as well as placing the papers in the correct order for their route.
Delivering Coffee News and the community involvement has opened the door to higher expectations by challenging Reid and Chris on a regular basis. People in the community are getting to know them both as they see them working, proving to be productive members of society, both displaying amazing growth and independence, as well as building relationships within the community.
