I joined to find my community, expand my knowledge and skills, and to be in the know.

Ebonie Allen-Gregory, Dietetics Student

I have been an Academy and DPG member since 2017, and I continue to find membership to be a significant asset to my practice. I especially appreciate the revised Standards and Scope of Practice for Registered Dietitians and Diabetes Care.

Sarah Hormachea, RDN, CDCES, BC-ADM

The Diabetes DPG has such a positive impact on my skills as a Certified Diabetes Care and Educator Specialist. I gain up to date knowledge from the Cutting Edge quarterly publications. I also find that this community is "my people".

Cheryl Orlansky, RDN, LD, CDCES

The knowledge and experience of all of us combined is priceless. The willingness of everyone to help everyone makes us all better. The time saving - someone has already researched, or put a power point together that can be shared.
