A Recipe for Success

Delta Corpsmember Rashad Wilson shares his culinary aspirations: "I see myself becoming a well-known chef one day." With determination, he obtained his ServSafe Managers certificate, marking a significant milestone in his journey.

In the California Conservation Corps (CCC)'s Culinary Program, dreams of future chefs and restaurateurs come to life as Corpsmembers enhance their skills. From mastering knife techniques to understanding food science, they're seasoning their resumes for success.

But it's not just about honing skills in the kitchen. CCC Culinary crews serve daily meals to fellow Corpsmembers at residential centers statewide. In emergencies, they step up to cook for firefighters and first responders, learning to adapt to new challenges along the way.

Beyond gaining valuable experience, Culinary Corpsmembers earn scholarships, a monthly stipend, and industry-recognized certifications like ServSafe. This real-world training, paired with paid opportunities, sets them up for success in the culinary world.
