“Come hungry, leave inspired.” That’s the motto of Old Skool Cafe in California. Owner Theresa Goines, a former juvenile probation officer, used all of her retirement savings to start the restaurant eight years ago.
Goines explains, “I started thinking: ‘Is there some place for them [youth] when they get out that’s going to actually see these young men for what they actually are- which is valuable and precious and not some scary criminal- but to see the boys inside that just want to be loved and have a chance at life.”
Goines provides hope and helps youth to get a fresh start after falling on hard times.
