TO EMPOWER YOUTH BY PROVIDING AN INNOVATIVE AND HOLISTIC JOB TRAINING AND LIFE SKILLS PROGRAM.
SOUTHERN ARTISAN TRAINING INSTITUTE'S (SATI) FIRST PROJECT WILL BE A WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM THAT WILL TRAIN UNEMPLOYED, UNDEREDUCATED YOUNG ADULTS FROM THE MISSISSIPPI CAPITAL CITY OF JACKSON. ORGANIZED AS A SEPERATE LLC WHOSE SOLE MEMBER IS SATI, THIS PROJECT WILL OWN AND OPERATE A RESTAURANT CALLED REFILL CAFE. EACH YEAR, REFILL CAFE WILL TRAIN FOUR COHORTS (EACH MADE UP OF 12 PARTICIPANTS, FOR AN ANNUAL PROGRAM TOTAL OF 48 PARTICIPANTS) IN SOFT SKILLS (E.G., FOOD SAFETY, CULINARY KNIFE SKILLS); PLACE PARTICIPANTS IN PAID INTERSHIPS; AND LINK GRADUATES TO FULL-TIME JOBS, LIKELY IN THE FOOD AND HOSPITALITY INDUSTRIES. REVENUES FROM THE RESTAURANT WILL BE INVESTED BACK INTO THE PROGRAM, BUT IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT SUCH REVENUES MAY ONLY BE SUFFICIENT TO COVER THE COST OF FOOD AND BEVERAGES TO BE SOLD, OTHER SUPPLIES NEEDED IN THE KITCHEN, AND ANY EQUIPMENT REPAIRS REQUIRED. GIVEN THE OVERALL COST OF THIS PROJECT, IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT FUNDING FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES WILL BE NEEDED TO PAY FOR OTHER NECESSARY EXPENSES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, STAFF SALARIES, RENT, UTILITIES, OFFICE SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT, AND PARTICIPANTS' UNIFORM AND STIPENDS. SUCH EXTERNAL SOURCES WILL LIKELY INCLUDE DONATIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND GRANTS OBTAINED FROM U.S. BASED FOUNDATIONS AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.
