Life's Kitchen is a community-based nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of Opportunity Youth (aka at-risk young adults) by building self-sufficiency and independence through a comprehensive Workforce Development, Food Service, Life Skills, and GED Training Program. The goal of Life's Kitchen is to empower young people who have significant barriers to success to secure employment and to become financially independent and contributing members of our community. Our objectives include delivery of robust and comprehensive food service and job training programs, providing life skills and resources so that employed young people can sustain themselves and thrive as independent young adults, and supporting continuing education through completion of their GED or enrollment in college. Life's Kitchen is also about personal character development. We want our trainees to develop a sense of direction and purpose in life; to be resilient, self-efficacious, and confident that they can bounce back from adversity and continue to move forward toward their larger goals. Our ultimate goal is to put young people on a trajectory towards success.We do all of this through our three training businesses: cafe, catering, and contract foods. We operate a training cafe Monday through Friday from 7 am-2 pm. We also operate a professional catering service. Our cafe menu, catering menu, and information about our program, including how a young person can enroll, can be found on our website: www.lifeskitchen.org.
