Race and Diversity in Dietetics
DDA's newly formed Diversity Committee is committed to making dietetics more inclusive. We want to hear how you - our members, partners, and community - feel about how race intersects with your professional life. Your answers will help us determine how to start the conversation and where to go from here.

Gathering ideas
We want to hear from you! A culture of diversity and inclusion requires buy-in from every part of the
organization. We want to hear your ideas for our committee.
What topics, related to diversity and inclusion, are you interested in learning more about? (For example: advice for promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace, the history of race issues in healthcare, or race and food insecurity. We are open to any and all ideas!) *
The Diversity Committee’s goals are to: 1. Promote cultural humility among Denver’s RDs. 2. Make dietetics a more inclusive profession. What programs, initiatives, or grants would you like to see the Diversity Committee undertake in pursuit of these goals? *
