Shangri-La's Yellow Napkin Project aims to increase our community's disability allyship through education and awareness that leads to actions that promote a more accessible and inclusive community. 

​

Started in 2022 with just 2,500 napkins, the Yellow Napkin Project now distributes 20,000 napkins featuring five disability literacy messages during Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month in March.

​

These messages were crafted using input from: 

  • individuals with disabilities served by Shangri-La

  • employees with disabilities working at Shangri-La

  • disability community allies, including Direct Support Professionals and family members of individuals with disabilities

Messages also echo the knowledge Shangri-La has learned from individuals with disabilities over the past 60 years of supporting this community.

​

The napkins are distributed by community partners, mainly food service establishments, who share the napkins with their customers.
