Last weekend, The Rooster’s Perch, a local meeting place for people with and without disabilities, opened the doors to a brand-new central location at 210 Bradford St. in Gainesville with hopes of growth for its patrons and the community. “We are looking to make adults with disabilities a part of the community, and we started The Rooster’s Perch as a coffee shop because it is a natural place for people to visit and socialize,” said Marty Owens, founder of The Rooster’s Perch and Randy and Friends. She created the Randy and Friends organization to help realize this goal but soon noticed the members needed a location to meet and socialize.
