The goal of the Junior Leagues' Kids in the Kitchen initiative, which is supported by The Association of Junior Leagues International Inc. and its member Leagues, is to empower youth to make healthy lifestyle choices and help reverse the growth of childhood obesity and its associated health issues.

Over 255 Leagues in Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the United States conducted the Junior Leagues' Kids in the Kitchen program in their communities in 2009.

To expand the program in the greater Augusta community, the Junior League of Augusta holds a free Kids in the Kitchen community event, providing exposure about healthy eating and lifestyle choices to area children.
