Brewing Coffee, Community and Inclusivity
The Nest positively impacts the lives of neurodiverse young adults with autism, intellectual/developmental disabilities, and related disorders by nurturing their unique skills, strengths, and preferences.
The Nest Coffee House, a program of A Little Compassion Inc., is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to changing the lives of young adults with disabilities. At The Nest we understand that finding your place in the world can be tough– especially during the formative young adult years – and it is even tougher for a young adult with autism, an intellectual or developmental disability, or who is neurodiverse. ALC has set out to make that journey smoother by creating employment and social opportunities for these young adults in our midst who need an opportunity to shine.

Join us for specialty coffee and tea, baked goods, quiche, breakfast sandwiches, salads, hearty sandwiches, soups and more.
The Nest is a place where young adults with disabilities gain work experience and confidence in a setting that is grounded in acceptance and support. It is also a place where our community gathers to see for themselves that young adults with disabilities are valuable and productive members of our community. We currently have already helped over 58 young adults with disabilities begin their work journey at The Nest!
We are so proud of our “Possibilities Boutique at The Nest”! It’s a unique gem of a place located within our coffee house in downtown Deep River. At the “Possibilities Boutique at The Nest” you will find the perfect one-of-a-kind item or gift that has the power to change lives.
We feel confident that the combination of our unique topic offerings and our focus on creating a sensory-friendly, alcohol-free and open/affirming space creates an environment where young adults can thrive. We currently offer Trivia Night, Board Game Night, Anime Night, Art Nights and more. Join us! Learn more and see our offerings by…
