Academy Foundation Diversity in Dietetics Scholarship Application Open

The Foundation’s Advancing Diversity in Dietetics Scholarship was established to support the educational advancement of aspiring registered dietitian nutritionists of diverse backgrounds or cultures. The scholarship aims to increase racial and ethnic diversity in the dietetics field to better reflect diverse communities served, and to address underrepresentation and financial need.

 

The Advancing Diversity in Dietetics Scholarship will provide two dietetic intern recipients with $25,000 each for their supervised practice programs during the 2021-2022 academic year.

 

The application is available within the Foundation’s application portal with a deadline of May 3, 2021, at 5:00 p.m. (Central time). To determine your eligibility, please visit www.eatrightfoundation.org/advancingdiversityindietetics.
