The Community Servings Teaching Kitchen trains individuals interested in careers in the food service industry who are currently unemployed or facing barriers to full-time employment. As they learn basic food service skills, program participants also help our kitchen staff prepare the meals we deliver to our clients each day.
Utilizing our state-of-the-art industrial kitchen, which provides an exceptional training venue for applying a well-structured and truly hands-on learning experience, this 12-week curriculum covers all facets of working in a professional kitchen including food safety and sanitation, menu planning, food preparation, nutrition, packaging and delivery. In addition, participants receive job-readiness skills highlighting the importance of punctuality, attendance, cooperation, and teamwork as well as writing, interviewing and job placement assistance.

Please contact Troy Heggie, Job Readiness & Employment Manager, at 617 522-7777 x 206 or theggie@servings.org, if you are interested in learning more about or participating in this training program. If you are a food service employer, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss your staffing needs and how we might partner with you.
