Success Story: Stephanie (Barista Training Program)

Up until middle school Stephanie was a straight A student but things changed when she entered high school and started having health issues. Rather than attending traditional high school, she decided to do running start which gave her the opportunity to get her Associates Degree. She always dreamed of becoming a naturopathic doctor but things changed when she found herself pregnant.

Having a young son made it difficult for her to continue her education which led her to the Goodwill Barista Training program. She is thankful to have the opportunity to learn skills that will one day result in a job working in a coffee shop.

Stephanie still has aspirations of working in the homeopathic industry and going back to school to fulfill her long-term goals of getting her Bachelor’s Degree.
