Last night, we officially celebrated the amazing Alex Wills' retirement with her friends, family, and colleagues over the years! After 16 years of (officially) being our biggest cheerleader, we cannot express how instrumental Alex has been in making CK the welcoming, positive place it is today

Alex, you have left such a legacy here at CK. Enjoy your retirement - you deserve it!

Class 39 of our Culinary Arts Training program is already in their fourth week and they're not messing around—I mean look at those knife skills already!

They are slowly moving out of the classroom setting and beginning to experiment with their own cooking techniques and flavors. This week, they split up into teams to practice Garde Manger (cold cooking). They made their own salads, dressings, and toppings and presented them to the CK staff.

Stay tuned for more updates as they hone their skills!

Every Thursday we get to work with these amazing partners from Cooper University Health Care's Medical Bus to serve our guests here at Cathedral Kitchen

The mobile unit provides addiction treatment for patients who are struggling with opioid, alcohol, and stimulant use disorders. They also offer wound care for xylazine-related skin injuries, basic urgent care services, infection treatment, and connections to primary care providers at Cooper locations in Camden. They also provide blood pressure and blood sugar screenings.

“Working with CK has been an amazing opportunity to interact with and offer services to a population who might not be familiar with Cooper's Addiction services, particularly those experiencing some kind of housing insecurity," shared Dr. Emily Tixier, Addiction Medicine Physician at the Cooper Medical Unit.

The mobile unit meets people where they are. For many of our guests, scheduling, transportation issues, lack of insurance, and fear of stigma or discrimination prevent them from getting the care they need and deserve.
