Youth Leadership Program
The project is the expansion of a six week leadership program held in the summer of 2021 in collaboration with a number of stakeholders including the Boston Public Schools, The City of Boston, City Year and Suffolk University. The Curriculum will include: Educate on racial and economic disparities as roots of food insecurity; weekly field trips to explore regional food disparities via supermarkets; Gardening (community, backyard, and scrap); and Cooking (healthy snacks, vegetable dishes, desserts). The program will culminate with an end of program presentation to stakeholders.
