In 2015, No Kid Hungry worked with Altarum Institute, an independent health systems research organization, to conduct the first-ever long-term study of the program. Proving what we have heard anecdotally from participants for years, the analysis found that Cooking Matters has a powerful, sustained impact that is significantly greater than changes that would have occurred without intervention. After learning Cooking Matters strategies, the study found that families have a more positive attitude about cooking, leading them to cook more often; are eating and making healthier, more budget-friendly meals; and are more confident that they'll be able to stretch their food dollars each month.
You can find the long-term study results here.
