Healthy Cooking Classes for At-Risk Youth: Health Ambassadors ran a six-week program training at-risk youth in nutrition and cooking skills. These Health Ambassadors are part of WhyNot City Missions, an organization serving youth who are homeless, low-income, unemployed, teen parents, abuse victims and/or struggling with a number of mental and physical health issues. They accompanied the healthy cooking instruction with strong messages about the self-worth of the participants, and the importance of adopting healthy lifestyle habits.
