Program areas at Hugs Cafe
Hugs Cafe Inc. is composed of four programs. Hugs Cafe is our flagship program where we directly employ 23 adults with special needs in a Cafe setting. To provide an introductory and social way to interact in the kitchen, we offer cooking classes via our Hugs home cooking program.
Our final addition to the Hugs Cafe Inc family of programs is Hugs training academy. This 12 week vocational training program supports adults with disabilities as they learn the basic skills to enter the workforce with an employment partner in the culinary or hospitality industries. All of our programs offer training and educational employment to adults with special needs so they may gain resepct and independence.
Hugs greenhouse is our third program that recognizes food service may not be for every person or every ability. We have developed a second social enterprise that trains and educates adults with special needs on gardening, retail sales, and socialization within the community.
