Teens Grow Greens: Experiential Internship Cultivates Young Minds

WholisticMatters Podcast Series

In the last regular episode of the Nutrition Education and Racial Disparities in Health podcast series, our guest is Charlie Uihlein, Executive Director of Milwaukee non-profit organization Teens Grow Greens (TGG). Charlie and his team at TGG focus on teen development through hands-on, experience-based internships. These children often come from low-income families and their family members may have, or are at risk for, chronic conditions due to their living conditions and access to proper nutrition.
