Home Cooking Skills Program

The Cooking Skills Program provides residents with hands-on experience in meal preparation, nutrition, budgeting, and food safety to strengthen their readiness for independent living. The program also promotes confidence, self-sufficiency, and positive social connections through collaborative learning in a supportive environment

 

• 9 Classes have taken place so far with the help of the church’s commercial kitchen
• 9 residents (about 33% of shelter capacity) have participated in the weekly class since starting the program 2.5 months.
• Participation is already growing so much that we have opened a second class to make sure everyone gets an opportunity
