Key Messages: Academy Strategic Plan

The Academy's Board of Directors gathered between June 3-6, 2008 at a board retreat in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The board activated the new Strategic Plan and began deliberating on branding the uniqueness of the Registered Dietitian.

Key components of this effort include:

reliance on every member's involvement to help achieve success;
the integration of strategies and financial and manpower resources among the Academy and its organization units, including the Foundation, ACEND, CDR, ANDPAC, DPGs, MIGs and the affiliates to maximize impact; and
the recognition of the DTR as a critical member of the dietetics team.
