DC Central Kitchen's Latest Training Tool is a Fast-Casual Cafe
When Debbie Banks enrolled in DC Central Kitchen's (DCCK) free Culinary Job Training (CJT) course in 2010 she was homeless. "I lost my job, lost my home, and walked the streets eating nothing but bagels. That's why I don't eat bagels now," she says.
The 14-week intensive program that includes culinary instruction, job readiness training, and life skills development takes adults who face employment barriers because of histories of incarceration, substance abuse, homelessness, and trauma and prepares them for jobs in food service, including restaurants.

DC Central Kitchen is an excellent nonprofit program because it provides food for the needy AND helps people with troubled pasts learn tangible skills in the kitchen so they can find jobs with these newly learned skills.
Here are some numbers they have provided (from the DCCK site) for 2013:
"Graduated 87 men and women from our Culinary Job Training Program and changed their lives and achieved a 89 percent job placement rate"
"Expanded our Culinary Job Training Program to two new sites, empowered 16 more men and women to find and maintain employment"
"Prevented 699,738 lbs lbs of food from being wasted and provided 1.8 million healthy meals to thousands of hungry men and women at 88 DC nonprofits"
"Produced healthy, scratch-cooked meals for over 2,400 low-income school children at DC schools"
"Expanded our Healthy Corner Store Program to 32 stores, combated food deserts by distributing 7,500 nutritious snacks each month and investing $40,000 into the local economy."
Real results making a difference in real lives.
This evening, I volunteered at DC Central Kitchen with two other girls from work. The organization is pretty remarkable, recycling food that would otherwise go to waste and producing 5,000 meals a day. There's a job prep program, there's a program to bring healthy snacks and produce to food deserts, there are campus kitchens. It diminishes it to just call it a soup kitchen.
While I unfortunately didn't run into President Obama, I had a good time. We cut probably hundreds of tomatoes, packaged up turkey dinners, and joked with the staff. (And they even gave us snacks, which was really lovely and so necessary since we left straight from work.) The work was pretty meditative, actually, and the little shot of service injected some much needed brightness into a long day. It sounds like my organization signed up once a month to go volunteer, so that's something to look forward to.
