Youth Programs
Empower Children through Healthy Eating & Food Choices
Childhood obesity and diabetes are growing problems in the United States. To improve the health of our nation’s youth, we need to educate children on the importance of health, wellness, and nutrition. At Rainbow Chefs Academy, we believe this starts by teaching kids about healthy cooking and eating.

Our Solution: An Interactive, Educational, Culinary Program for Youth
Partner with Rainbow Chefs Academy to offer a hands-on culinary program at your camp, community center, private club, religious group, or youth organization. Our lessons can be adapted to support children between the ages of 4 to 18, and our courses align with Common Core State Standards (CCSS), NGSS, NHES, CASEL, STEAM/STEM, and CTE standards. No kitchen? No problem! Our healthy, delicious recipes are designed to not require a kitchen. If staffing is a concern, we can provide the instructors if needed. Let’s collaborate and encourage lifelong healthy eating with youth in your community.
Each Child Receives a Free Backpack
Youth participants receive our proprietary backpack that contains important cooking utensils. Children will appreciate receiving a memento from your program, but, more importantly, they’ll be equipped to use their healthy skills at home.
