Our Culinary Job Training program offers skills beyond the kitchen. Each student receives financial literacy training and wrap-around services. Students also receive in-house job placement assistance from our employment specialist staff.

Our mission is about empowering the youth with knowledge on healthy ingredient selection so they can become the catalysts for change in their communities. By improving the health of individuals and the food system, we are creating a healthier, more sustainable future for all.
