Our Nutrition Program is designed to feed hungry youth a nutritious snack every day after school at each of our two drop-in youth centres and provides an opportunity for youth to improve their food preparation skills as well as their knowledge of nutrition and cooking confidence.
Through this program, we can provide a healthy After School Snack at our two youth drop-in centres.
Daily snacks include but are not limited to:
- yogurt and granola
- veggies and dip
- apple slices, bananas, watermelon
- cheese and crackers
- pita bread and tzatziki
Our Friday Dinner Program occurs monthly at our two youth drop-in centres. This program teaches youth how to prepare and cook simple affordable meals such as spaghetti and meatballs, pancakes and fruit salad, or tacos. It also allows youth to sit around a table and share a meal with friends!
This program is funded by The United Way Food Security Initiative & supported by Valley Food Connection
