About Dan's Legacy
Dan's Legacy provides trauma-informed and culturally sensitive counselling and life-skills programs to youth at risk in Metro Vancouver.

Cook Training Program / Dan's Diner Social Enterprise
Dan's Legacy's Cook Training and Dan's Diner Social Enterprise job-skills programs provide clinically supported training in cooking skills to youth aging out of care, Indigenous youth, young women survivors of gendered abuse and new Canadians. The Cook Instructor, supported by Dan's Legacy's counselling and outreach team, works with a cohort of young adult students with various mental health challenges in the Cook Training program. Training is provided to the Cook Instructor from the counselling team to learn best practices in supporting youth with trauma-based mental health challenges.
Dan's Legacy knows that at-risk youth need opportunities to not only maintain their mental wellness but also grow and thrive in the community. The Dan's Legacy job-skills training programs are designed to provide youth with the training they need to work immediately in the hospitality industry, or move on to further post-secondary culinary skills training, eventually obtaining Red Seal Certification.
