Nutrition and Dietetics Advocacy Summit!

Connect with hundreds of food and nutrition practitioners of all skill levels to take a deep-dive into key policy issues that impact the health of the nation and dietetics profession during the Nutrition and Dietetics Advocacy Summit! Taking place virtually, March 28-30, attendees will also sharpen communication skills and develop new, high-level personal and professional relationships.

The summit will focus on two of the Academy's top policy and advocacy efforts: medical nutrition therapy expansion and child nutrition. Attendees will receive training on these issues during the first two days of the event to ensure they are prepared for congressional meetings on March 30, which will be conducted in small groups with a designated leader. Click here to register.
