In addition, I feel students should be encouraged to move to other Towns and States once they perfect their skills. Learning to live in a different environment is key to moving into a different lifestyle with new skills. Old habits and old friends can get the best of someone that is trying to make a change for the better. Culinary skills can be used ANYWHERE in this country and in international markets, so I am ecstatic to hear about the program!

People are always going to have to eat and the internet can't provide food like it can news. Good path for ex-cons and people in recovery. If Food Network were really interested in doing some good public service, food-related specials, something along these lines would be great. Great piece. I don't have much else to add than that.
