Liberty’s Kitchen is a non-profit social enterprise providing pathways for New Orleans young people to create and achieve their vision of success. Our Youth Development Program is a twelve-week work readiness intensive designed for New Orleans youth between the ages of 16-24, who are out of work and not enrolled in school. The program provides participants with technical and transferable skills training in a real work (commercial kitchen) environment. Our team addresses barriers to employment ranging from housing, to mental health care access, to transportation. The objective of the program is to develop graduates with a sense of purpose and the skills, tools, and opportunities to thrive in gainful employment.
