The Youth Empowerment Center's Hot Meal Program serves hot meals twice a week for YEC residents, program participants and any other LGBTQ+ visitors to the YEC. Volunteers can support this program in one of two ways: 1. Cooking/Serving the Hot Meal - This role would be assisting staff cook and serve the hot meals at the Youth Empowerment Center. The meal must be large enough to feed 6-12 people. Attendance can vary and leftovers don't last long, so larger meals are also welcome! 2. Providing the Meal via TakeOut - Volunteers who want to support but cannot cook or assist in the meal can also provide the meal via takeout. You would just order the meal from a local restaurant of your choice, and deliver it or have it delivered to the YEC. You would coordinate directly with the YEC staff for this option.
