FOOD SECURITY: 100,000 FREE HOMEMADE MEALS & counting

MAking meals with meaning

We’ve delivered more than 100,000 meals and over 3 million ounces of water as part of our public-health mission. These essentials stabilize people in high-need moments and build the trust required for deeper care. In April 2024, we expanded our work to also PREPARE 500 scratch-made meals each week — nourishing health, reducing risk, and providing consistent, dignified support exactly where people are, and exactly when they need it.

we are change agents

Visit our Paid Job Training page to see how people in transformative recovery prepare “Meals with Meaning.” Our transitional model fits the realities of early recovery—treatment schedules, rebuilding routines, and honoring commitments. For many trainees, it’s a first job ever or a first in decades. Paid experience and steady support help participants build stability, confidence, consistency, and the foundation for long-term success.
