PROGRAMS HIGHLIGHT
COOKING PROGRAM HIGHLIGHT
Cooking classes teach youth basic math skills such as weighing, measuring, and tracking time. Through cooking, our youth learn how to handle food, use kitchen equipment, and work together. The ability to cook is a lifelong skill that our young people will use for the rest of their lives.
