Regions vs. Districts
Currently Iowa is divided into twelve District Dietetic Associations. A map of the districts can be found here

Some districts are very active while other districts have been inactive for some time. In some areas, it has become increasingly difficult to fill the leadership roles for the districts. Therefore, the Iowa Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is exploring the option of dividing the state into larger regions.
Below is a map showing the proposed larger regions.
