My wife taught an after school class once a week for 6 weeks each semester in inner-city DC. It was geared towards middle schoolers and it taught them how to feed a family of 4 a healthy meal for ~$12. The idea was that if kids could learn it, they could reinforce it in their families to get healthier meals for less than it would cost to eat at McDonald's. I imagine there would be a need like that in NYC.
