The Caf\u00e9 is held at the Yachad Israel\u2019s Vocational Training Center in the German Colony of Jerusalem. The Center\u2019s workplace skills classroom is transformed into a caf\u00e9 with tablecloths, centerpieces, music, and a menu of soup, salad, pasta and fish. The Yachad Caf\u00e9 is a great opportunity for the families and friends of the participants and patrons of Yachad Israel to see firsthand the progress the participants have made in Yachad Israel\u2019s vocational training program. The Caf\u00e9 night was successful at bringing in 4,000 shekel for the Yachad Vocational Scholarship Fund. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Yachad Israel vocational training center was created by Yachad to give young adults with special needs from English speaking homes a chance to learn the skills they need to maximize their chances of independence in the future.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Yachad uses this caf\u00e9 as a means to teach skills such as: cooking, menu design, serving, and other food service-related jobs. This is just one of the focuses of the Yachad vocational training program, which also teaches other skills including, customer service, elder care, and retail sales. Additionally, each week the members visit a site related to the skills they are learning so they learn to understand the workplace environment as well. After the program, the participants go onto internships where they work with a job coach. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jns.org\/belly-filling-and-heart-warming-an-evening-in-jerusalems-yachad-cafe\/\">Read the full story here<\/a><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you heard about the hottest restaurant in Israel?
