Welcome to the New Jersey Dietetic Association (NJDA) website. We are an affiliate of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the nation’s largest organization of food and nutrition professionals. We have approximately 2000 active members (Registered Dietitians - RD’s and Dietetic Technicians, Registered -DTR’s) in New Jersey who are committed to promoting the optimal nutrition, health and well-being of our consumers. We serve as the resource of food and nutrition information that is scientific and evidence-based. Our members can be found in acute care, long term care, private practice, business, schools, community settings as well as in research and educational facilities.

For the public, this website provides a wealth of reliable nutrition information and resources for you to make better food and health choices. We encourage you also to visit the site of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics found at www.eatright.org.

For our members, we are striving to make this site your go-to resource of up-to-date information about what we at NJDA are doing for you. This includes a job bank, current educational resources and networking opportunities and seminars throughout the state as well as our current legislative initiatives.
