DC Central Kitchen envisions a more just city where everyone has access to healthy food, meaningful careers, and opportunities to achieve their full potential.  

After three decades operating in the basement of the Federal City Shelter in downtown DC, we are thrilled to be relocating our headquarters to the Buzzard Point neighborhood in early 2022. This new facility within the River Point development will allow us to triple our capacity, providing the healthy food and job training opportunities that our community needs more urgently than ever before.  

In addition to scaling our programs, offering a state-of-the-art learning environment for our culinary trainees, and ensuring a base of operations here in our nation’s capital for decades to come, DC Central Kitchen looks forward to becoming an integral, inclusive part of the Southwest DC community, unleashing the power of food through bold, innovative solutions. 

Join us in this urgent and ambitious effort to build a solution for hunger and poverty worthy of our nation’s capital.
