WELCOME TO THE NORTHERN DISTRICT VIRGINIA DIETETIC ASSOCIATION!

The Northern District Virginia Dietetic Association (NDVDA) is a professional, non-profit organization of food and nutrition experts. We are affiliated with the Virginia Dietetic Association (VDA), and with our national organization, the American Dietetic Association (ADA).

Registered Dietitians (RDs) are the food and nutrition experts, and members of ADA are the public’s best source for accurate and timely nutrition information. 

As an organization, NDVDA supports its members through continuing education, job listings, private practice promotion, networking connections, and advocacy efforts. NDVDA provides the public with food and nutrition information, participating in local health fairs and events across our region.  We provide access to an up-to-date list of Registered Dietitians based in the Northern Virginia area -- available for consult by specialty and location.

If you are a member of ADA, with Virginia as your affiliate, we invite you to join NDVDA!

Membership has its rewards -- inside our members-only section we maintain an up-to-date list of job opportunities; a library of current and past newsletters; a membership list for networking; and more. 

Bookmark this site and return often!  NDVDA is here to assist both its members and the public in the dissemination of sound, accurate food and nutrition advice.  As a member of our organization or as an interested consumer, you can count on us to keep you informed of the latest happenings in Northern Virginia!

Yours in good health,
