The 2026 theme, Discover the Power of Nutrition, highlights the transformative role that nutrition plays in health, well-being, and disease prevention.&nbsp; Behind the scenes, nutrition professionals are also working to ensure that the policies shaping healthcare and higher education support the future of the profession. In Pennsylvania and across the United States, policy decisions affecting professional education and licensure can directly influence who can enter the field of nutrition and dietetics. Recent policy discussions regarding federal professional degree classifications have raised concerns about whether nutrition and dietetics programs will continue to be recognized within the professional graduate degree framework. Ensuring that these programs remain properly classified is essential to protecting access to graduate education for future dietitians. Graduate education is already a required component of becoming a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN). If nutrition and dietetics programs are excluded from professional degree classifications, it could create significant barriers for students pursuing graduate training in nutrition science, dietetics, and clinical nutrition practice. Supporting PANDPAC helps ensure that nutrition professionals have a voice in policy discussions that impact: &bull; access to graduate education in nutrition and dietetics&bull; workforce development for nutrition professionals&bull; evidence-based nutrition policy&bull; access to medical nutrition therapy and nutrition care&bull; the role of dietitians in healthcare systems and public health programs Through advocacy, education, and engagement with policymakers, PANDPAC works to advance policies that protect both the profession and the communities we serve. Your support helps ensure that nutrition experts continue to play a vital role in improving health outcomes across Pennsylvania and beyond.
