There is always a chance for growth and change.  And no matter what difficulties a person has been through, they can lead a self-sufficient and happy life.

That's the idea behind The Salvation Army of Sacramento's Culinary Arts Training Program - a program that welcomes people who have struggled with homelessness and substance abuse, and gives them a unique opportunity.  Through this program, they develop kitchen skills to support meaningful employment in local hospitality industries while instilling professionalism, confidence, and dignity.
