Episode description

Teresa Goines is Founder and Executive Director of Old Skool Cafe, a non-profit youth restaurant located in San Francisco’s Bayview District. Once a probation officer in juvenile prison, Teresa realized that locking up kids only perpetuated their troubles. She wanted to give them direction, income, community, and purpose. With the help of volunteer chefs and builders, Old Skool Cafe went from a small pop-up in Teresa’s home to a beautiful 1920s-style supper club in an old refurbished church. With velvet curtains and booths to chandeliers and international soul food, Old Skool Cafe is now a home for both challenged youth and lovers of soul food alike. The kids run everything including cooking, cleaning, waiting, and entertainment. The program trains, employs, and teaches them leadership and management skills, all the while giving them a new kind of home. Goines’ vision brought Old Skool Cafe to life, but the kids keep it alive. We are very proud to feature her as our guest this week on Beyond The Fog Radio.
