TNC Community is bringing Howdy Homemade Ice Cream to Lee’s Summit, Missouri, marking a monumental milestone for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the Kansas City area.
About Howdy Homemade Ice Cream
Howdy Homemade Ice Cream is on a relentless pursuit to create jobs for individuals with IDD. Opening this spring at 921 NE Woods Chapel Rd, Howdy Homemade KC will be one of the first businesses in Kansas City dedicated to creating equitable, inclusive job opportunities. We’re about so much more than amazing ice cream—we’re creating a place where everyone belongs.
Help Build a More Inclusive Future
As we prepare to open, we invite all at UAW Local 249 to join us. Your support will help break down barriers and create meaningful employment opportunities, empowering individuals with IDD with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the workforce.
