Mission and Values
The St. Louis Dietetic Association (SLDA) is a professional organization affiliated with the Missouri Dietetic Association (MDA) and the American Dietetic Association (ADA).
Mission
The SLDA promotes optimal nutrition and well being for all people by advocating
for its members.
Vision
SLDA members are the leading source of food and nutrition services.
SLDA provides many educational functions, community projects, and networking opportunities for members to have fun participating in. On an individual basis, participation in the activities of SLDA allows a person to:
- Increase his/her involvement in the profession
- Meet and work with other professionals which broadens his/her scope of dietetics
- Establish a network with other dietitians for the sharing of ideas and resources
Undergraduate and graduate students and dietetic interns are encouraged and welcome to become active in any or all of the SLDA activities.
SLDA is always open to new special projects for its members. If any member has an interest in volunteering to organize and implement a new project, they are encouraged to contact the President or President-Elect, who will bring the project before the SLDA Board for approval.
