    One in six Indiana residents suffers from food insecurity. The ratio is higher among children.

    The Junior Chef Academy Indianapolis empowers local teens (ages 12–16) to fight food insecurity at its source by teaching hands-on culinary skills, nutrition education, and community food leadership. Our after-school programs build healthy-eating habits, boost kitchen confidence, and connect students with neighborhood food resources — turning today’s learners into tomorrow’s food-savvy leaders across Indianapolis neighborhoods.
