Mission

The Texas Restaurant Association Education Foundation's (TRAEF) mission is to provide educational opportunities to build and maintain a strong professional foodservice workforce in Texas. The organization's flagship program is Texas ProStart, an industry-based, two-year high school culinary arts and restaurant management curriculum. Programs in partnership with KidFit, and newly developed programs in partnership with the National Restaurant Association further support workforce development, aiding at-risk populations, vocationally-focused young adults, and exiting military to prepare for and be successful in the restaurant and foodservice industry. Funds raised support all these programs. Texas ProStart is currently in 175+ Texas high schools, reaching over 15,000 students annually.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

TRAEF's goal is to continue serving as a critical education and workforce resource for the Texas restaurant industry.

TRAEF's strategies include expanding our school involvement, expanding our internship/apprenticeship and mentoring programs, expand partnerships with industry business and organizations that help further broaden possible career goals for Texas ProStart graduates, and to help meet the needs of Texas restaurants' and their staffing issues by connecting them with our workforce pipeline, including through the further development of workforce support programs for youth, at-risk, disenfranchised, and exiting military populations.

Currently, we are accomplishing our goals. However, we desire to expand and serve more students and more of our industry.
