SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) - A coffee and ice cream shop in Downtown Sarasota is going above and beyond to help people with developmental disabilities.
“I like being a cashier, I like meeting new people,” said Erik Esclangon.
Esclangon works at Rise Coffee Co. and Nye’s Cream Sandwiches on State St. While the shop is less than a week old, it’s bringing a lot of attention among locals.
