Speaker: Jennifer Pooler, MPP, IMPAQ International, LLC

Cooking Matters is a 6-week course that teaches low-income families to cook healthy meals on a budget and reaches more than 100,000 people per year. In 2014-2015, Share Our Strength commissioned the National Cooking Matters Impact Evaluation to assess longer-term outcomes associated with participation in the program. This webinar will describe the quasi-experimental study design, including its limitations and challenges, as well as 6-month post-course outcomes related to food resource management and healthy food preparation.
