Matching Dietetics Students with Community Placements
Students at the six Wisconsin dietetics programs seek opportunities for experiential learning that will help them develop foundation knowledge and competency, and gain experience with diverse audiences.
Local partners and coalitions addressing issues such as child obesity, food insecurity/hunger, and nutrition policy have projects they would like to accomplish, and want new ways to recruit help outside their membership.
 A USDA Higher Education Challenge Grant now makes it possible to promote public health and community nutrition practicum opportunities with a web-based format that's easy for both students and community partners to use.
The long term goal: valuable educational experiences will build a better workforce to contribute to a healthier Wisconsin.
