The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Foundations Registered Dietitian (RD) Parent Empowerment Program is coming to a close in Chicago, San Francisco, Tennessee, and Washington, DC. The four monthly interactive parent workshops featured facilitated discussions about nutrition and physical activity between the RDs and parents. The workshops provided an opportunity for nutrition students and dietetic interns to gain valuable experience. All of the RD Parent
Empowerment sites utilized students and interns, and the program in Johnson City, Tennessee was led by two dietetic interns. Thank you to our many volunteers, students, and interns!

cooking and tasting activities.

parents are empowered with
the new skills they learned
from Registered Dietitian,
Soraya Valencia. As parents
begin to make healthy
changes in their own lifestyle, they are able to improve the familys
nutrition and physical activity lifestyle, and then can help empower
their peers to do the same.
