Coffee shops in SW China's Yunnan help individuals with special needs integrate into society.

A coffee shop in Kunming, capital of southwest China's Yunnan Province, is brewing up more than just lattes - it's a place of hope for individuals with special needs.

Duoduo is a 23-year-old barista with autism at Chuxing Cafe in Hepinglu neighborhood, Taihe subdistrict, Guandu district, Kunming. It took him two years to master the skills of making coffee.

The cafe, located in a Party service center, is the city's first coffee shop dedicated to helping individuals with special needs.
