Exploration of Learning Goals and Learning Outcomes in Two Community Kitchens in Seattle

Community kitchens (CK) are associated with increases in nutrition knowledge, cooking skills, social support, self-efficacy, empowerment, and food security. While interconnected functions of CK have been explored, a distinct paucity of published studies remains, especially in the US, and little is known on CK in the context of job training. The aims of this study were to describe CK as settings for training, and specifically, the goals of the participants, and the degree of achievement of learning outcomes across four types of CK participants within their respective CK.
