We believe in the power of food & hospitality to transform young lives. We believe learning to cook is the first step in this journey. Culinary arts teaches problem-solving, creativity, innovation, time management, and analytical skills. Knowing how to boil water and cook an egg is not enough. True power comes in preparing, cooking, presenting, and serving a meal to others. We believe confidence in the kitchen leads to confidence in the workplace. That’s why we’ve been saying, “Yes, Chef!” to young culinary hopefuls for nearly four decades. Through our programs and vast network of industry partners, we are creating clear pathways for the next generation of sous chefs, executive chefs, hospitality workers, hoteliers, restaurateurs, and food entrepreneurs.

A Catalyst for the Disability Employment Movement, the National Organization on Disability (NOD) is a private, non-profit organization that promotes the full participation of America’s 56 million people with disabilities in all aspects of life. Today, NOD focuses on increasing employment opportunities for the 79 percent of working-age Americans with disabilities who are not employed. With programs on the ground, NOD is demonstrating new employment practices and models of service delivery, evaluating results, and sharing successful approaches for widespread replication. We are conducting research on disability employment issues, including the field’s most widely used polls on employment trends and the quality of life for people with disabilities. And our subject matter experts in disability and employment provide consulting services to public agencies and employers seeking to harness the unique talents that people with disabilities can bring to the workforce. To achieve our goals, we work in partnership with employers, schools, the military, service providers, researchers, and disability advocates. Our current employment programs are benefiting high school students with disabilities transitioning into the workforce, seriously injured service members, employers seeking to become more disability friendly, and state governments engaged in policy reform.
