Operation Frontline

A Strong Front Against Childhood Hunger

Operation Frontline provides a strong foundation in nutrition, cooking, and household budgeting through our specialized courses for adults, kids, and teens.

Operation Frontline plays a critical role in Share Our Strength’s strategy to end childhood hunger. Here are some of the ways the program helps surround kids who are at risk of hunger with nutritious foods where they live, learn and play.

In many ways, Operation Frontline provides knowledge and skills that help surround kids at risk of hunger with healthy foods where they live, learn and play:

  • Operation Frontline helps families with limited resources make healthy meals at home, using a wide variety of foods that are commonly available in stores and from emergency food providers.
  • All Operation Frontline courses promote making the healthiest food choices possible, even with limited resources.
  • Instructors teach lifelong cooking skills, practical nutrition information and food budgeting strategies that participants can use right away and take into the future.
  • Adult and teen participants receive groceries at the end of each class to practice the recipes they’ve learned at home.
  • Courses include information on available federal, state and local assistance programs.
  • Operation Frontline classes are popular with afterschool, summer food, Head Start and WIC programs.
