We offer a hands-on approach and training in various tasks including hand-washing & detailing cars, dent removal, gardening, lawn care, general job skills, pressure-washing, and cooking. We expand our repertoire of job skill options when and if area businesses opt to step in with trainers and/or supplies. Participants must be enrolled in school or actively pursuing their GED. (Progress is frequent
ly checked.) We rely, in large part, on our community to provide the equipment, tools, tutors, trainers, customers, and operating funds that we need. E1’s center of operations is the Chillax Teen Club, located at 2819 Capital Circle NE. Chillax is pleased to provide a venue for E1’s tutoring and study sessions, a car wash, meetings, and more! The youth that join E1 are expected to spend a minimum of 6 hours a week participating in program activities. When the youth do work for paying customers, they will go home with a little money in their pockets and the sense of well-being and pride that comes from having marketable skills and doing honest work. Please Contact Shon Rivera, founder and Director of E1 if you know of a teenager that could benefit from this program. Shon can be reached at or via email at 850.756-4560 or via email at [email protected]. If you are interested in supporting E1 with your time, talent, funds, and/or job skill training) call Shon or contact Terry Hume, owner of Chillax.
