An Idaho Champion of Healthy Lifestyles
The Idaho Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is a membership-based professional organization and the local affiliate of the National Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
Vision: Cultivate a community where all people thrive through the transformative power of food and nutrition.
Mission: Accelerate improvements in health and well-being through food and nutrition by empowering the Idaho RDN and NDTR.
The RDN is educated and trained in food and nutrition science and dietetics practice. RDNs are integral members and leaders of interprofessional teams in health care, food service management, education, research, and other practice environments. They provide services in varied settings, such as health care; business and industry; community and public health systems; schools, colleges, and universities; the military; government; research; wellness and fitness centers; agribusiness; private practice; and communications.
The Idaho Academy promotes the value of the dietetic professional through membership, innovation in dietetic practice, and ongoing professional development to champion healthy lifestyles and nutrition-related public policy for the well-being of our members and the communities they serve.
Idaho Academy members embrace change with creativity and strategic thinking and strive to make decisions with consideration for environmental, economic, and social implications.
As an organization, we seek to demonstrate standards of excellence in leadership, organization, professional practice, and service.
