The Other Ones Foundation, or TOOF, cut the ribbon on a vocational skills center that will serve the homeless population in Austin.
The John Paul DeJoria Vocational Skills Center opened Friday at the Esperanza Community. Its goal is to “host a new approach to homelessness services” by offering vocational training and services, according to a joint release from TOOF and JP’s Peace, Love & Happiness Foundation.
According to TOOF, the services offered at the vocational center are some of the fastest-growing and high-paying trades, as identified by the Workforce Solutions Capital Area (WFSCA).
