The
Habilitat food service/catering department provides our residents with
on-the-job training in the culinary arts, in particular the food preparation
area. Acquiring the discipline, determination, and drive to feed over
100 hungry mouths three times a day every day prepares the residents for
gainful employment once they graduate from our program.
Not only do they learn the day to day routines of preparing food; they also learn how to meet the requirements of our residents who have special dietary needs.
They receive guidance and training on a regular basis from a licensed dietitian. The knowledge, drive, and motivation acquired by the residents while working in the kitchen help them to help their community. This department has produced several talented island chefs. Habilitat has developed one of the most comprehensive, diverse, and commercially viable vocational training programs anywhere. Our businesses are fully functioning entities that actually support the organization.
