The statistics are staggering: unemployment rates for neurodivergent adults in the U.S. are as high as 30-40%, three times higher than the rate for people with physical disabilities, and eight times higher than the rate for people without disabilities. For specifically autistic adults, it is estimated that 85% of American adults with autism that have a college education are unemployed.

At Daily Bloom, these aren't just numbers. They represent real people who deserve meaningful work and economic independence. That's exactly why we created "Inclusively Made"—not as a marketing campaign, but as a tangible commitment to changing these realities.

The Gap We Couldn't Ignore

When we started Daily Bloom, our mission was clear: create authentic, empowering resources for neurodivergent individuals. But as we grew, we saw a troubling disconnect. We were creating products about neurodiversity and inclusion, yet our manufacturing process wasn't necessarily including the very people we were advocating for.

It felt hypocritical. We knew we had to do better.

What Inclusively Made Really Means

Inclusively Made is Daily Bloom's commitment to choosing manufacturers who actively employ neurodivergent individuals. Every time you see this designation on our products, you know that:

• Neurodivergent individuals were directly involved in bringing that product to life
• Fair wages and supportive work environments were provided throughout production
• Your purchase directly supports employment opportunities for a community facing significant barriers
• You have transparency into how your product was made... unlike faceless sellers on Amazon or Etsy

Our Choice: Spectrum Designs

For apparel, Daily Bloom chose Spectrum Designs for our print and fulfillment services. While we could have used any unknown print house, we deliberately selected Spectrum Designs because they've created a manufacturing environment where neurodivergent individuals don't just work, they thrive.

When we visited their facility, we felt their commitment to quality, inclusion, and intentional work. Their team brings skill, heart, and purpose to every item & values that deeply align with Daily Bloom's mission. With the ability to print more than 2,500 pieces per HOUR, their team of 75+ highly trained employees can produce orders quickly and efficiently.

This is Daily Bloom making intentional choices about who handles our production. When you wear Daily Bloom apparel produced through Spectrum Designs, you're not just making a style statement; you're participating in an economic revolution that values neurodivergent contributions.

Why This Matters to You

Research shows that neurodiverse teams are 30% more productive than others, and organizations that hire people with disabilities have 28% higher profit revenues, along with higher rates of retention, engagement, and creativity among their workers, when compared to their less diverse competitors. Neurodivergent individuals often bring exceptional abilities: pattern recognition, attention to detail, analytical thinking, and creative problem-solving.

Whether you're a professional advocate, a family member, or simply someone who believes in inclusion, Inclusively Made products represent the alignment of your values with your purchasing power.

Every Inclusively Made purchase:

• Creates direct employment opportunities for neurodivergent individuals
• Challenges traditional manufacturing practices that exclude this talent pool
• Demonstrates market demand for inclusive business practices
• Proves that inclusion and quality aren't mutually exclusive

The Transparency Difference

When you buy from Daily Bloom, you know exactly how your product was made and where your money goes. Compare that to buying a shirt from a faceless seller online—you have no idea who printed it, where it was made, or whether the workers were treated fairly.

We're going beyond awareness to action.

What's Next

Daily Bloom's Inclusively Made initiative is expanding rapidly. We're adding more and more products to our Inclusively Made collection daily, giving you even more ways to support neurodivergent employment with every purchase. We're also actively seeking additional manufacturing partners who share our commitment to neurodiversity employment, and we're working to extend this concept beyond apparel to our books and visual tools and even the designs themselves.

Our goal is ambitious: to create a supply chain where neurodivergent employment isn't an afterthought, but an integral part of how we do business.

Join the Movement

When you choose Inclusively Made products from Daily Bloom, you're voting with your wallet for a more inclusive economy. You're showing that consumers care about how products are made, not just what they look like.

The statistics we shared aren't acceptable. We can do better. We must do better. And with your support, we will.

Because when we bloom together, we all grow stronger.
