Description

The Grooming Project is an initiative of Empowering the Parent to Empower the Child (EPEC), a 501c3 organization dedicated to reducing generational poverty in Kansas City. Through their state-certified grooming school and grooming salon, they train struggling parents to be pet groomers and salon managers, both in-demand, living-wage trades.

On today’s episode, Fr. Justin Mathews interviews Jarrod Sanderson, Director of Housing & Program Design for EPEC. They discuss The Grooming Project’s journey from an idea to one of KC's most influential social enterprises, what it really takes to help a family break the cycle of poverty, and why up and coming entrepreneurs should seriously consider starting mission-led businesses.
