Kids in the Kitchen and Boys / Girls Club 2011KIDS IN THE KITCHEN 

Kids in the Kitchen seeks to empower kids to make healthy dietary choices.  Using AJLI's national initiative as a model, this program's primary focus is nutritional literacy.  JLOC volunteers participate in planning and executing events, menu planning, and basic healthy choices to 315 children at the Boys & Girls Club of Oklahoma County.
