What do you see as opportunities for the future of the nutrition and dietetics profession?
As I have seen the profession of dietetics and ADA/AND advance over the years we have established our positions(s) in health care but have much to do to continue to prove ourselves and advance our position in nutrition. Areas of opportunities include increased proof of providing Quality Health Care, provision of more preventive/public health care, enhancing and improving the eating habits and skills of Americans and extend that world wide, help to improve food security, and continued research.
