Blue Sky Inn is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization established to provide educational, cultural and recreational activities to at-risk youth in Chicago. The youth in its programs are between the ages of 14-24. They have been affected by substance abuse, poverty, violence, abuse, neglect, mental health conditions, unstable housing, and economic and social injustice. Its work is mainly carried out via our two programs: eXpressions, which provides arts programming in several homeless shelters around the city, and The Blue Sky Employment Program, a job-training program whereby youth learn baking, customer service and restaurant management skills via its catering service and its retail space Blue Sky Bakery & Café, 4749 N.
