Summary:

The Jack's Restaurant began with a mission to promote social responsibility in the hospitality industry. Current statistics show almost 98% of developmentally challenged individuals within the United States are unemployed, though they are capable of contributing to society. Jack's Restaurant focused on training developmentally challenged and autistic individuals for various food production, service, and sanitation positions in a restaurant setting. The restaurant facilities employed over 40 such individuals, approximately half the staff, and provided them with a meaningful work life. Jack's Restaurant had plans to expand its operations to provide training and improve employment opportunities for a greater number of developmentally challenged individuals.
