Improve Your Skills as Nutrition Professional
The Diversify Dietetics Annual Summit is back on May 10-12, 2023 and this year's theme is Culturally Humble Care in Action!
Our Summit goes beyond the WHY and focuses on the HOW of nutrition topics. From building an entrepreneurial business, exploring new nutritional science, translating food trends, to supporting food insecurity, you'll walk away with strategies to provide equitable care for clients, patient and communities of color.
The Diversify Dietetics Community is full of inspiring nutrition professionals who are extremely talented with an unmatched work ethic and creativity. They are committed to incorporating cultural humility into their practice and sharing those skills with you
The summit includes sessions, workshops, panels, and cooking demos across various practice areas, with the most diverse set of food and nutrition professionals at any conference. Attendees will receive 19.5 CEUs.
You’ll be free to learn and explore in a supportive, safe, and inspirational setting. By the end of three days you will feel inspired and more confident in incorporating cultural humility into your practice. Our events are truly like no others in the dietetics community!
A bonus: Proceeds from this event support the programming we provide to the DD Community!
