  hunger, Share Our Strength, recently became
  partners to bring the Cooking Matters program
  to the Rochester community.
 The Cooking Matters courses will be offered at
  Foodlink’s member organizations within the
  Rochester area.
WHAT IS COOKING MATTERS?
 Cooking Matters is a national program designed
  to provide American families with the skills and
  knowledge necessary to make nutritious and
  inexpensive meals on limited budgets.
 Cooking Matters courses are offered at
  community agencies, housing centers and after
  school programs across the country.
 The program serves more than 11,000 families
  annually.
       Over 85 percent of participants graduate from the
        program. These participants develop lifelong self-
        sufficiency in all stages of food preparation.
COURSES

 Share Our Strength offers six
  different courses designed to
  educate children, teens, adults
  or families.
 The courses meet for two
  hours a week for six weeks
 Through hands on cooking and
  nutrition lessons the courses
  teach the participants:
     Nutrition
     Food preparation
     Budgeting
     Shopping
HOW CAN YOU HELP? VOLUNTEER.
 The courses are lead by volunteer culinary and
  nutrition experts.
 Anyone with a culinary background or experience

 Some past instructors included:
       Chefs
       Food preparation workers
       Service managers/supervisors
       Restaurant owners/managers
       And more

  healthy meals. They use their expertise and
  Cooking Matters lesson plans and recipes to
  teach the courses.
 Nutrition instructors educate children, teens and
  adults how to choose healthy foods. Cooking
  Matters provides lesson plans and instructional
