Welcome!

Welcome to Healthy Aging DPG's website!

Your 2010-11 Executive Committee is excited to serve our HA members this year.

One of our first initiatives has been to define our practice group:

The HA-DPG members believe the health of older adults is improved by optimal nutrition and physical activity. Our members are a valued source of information on healthy aging. 
We:
• Translate cutting-edge research into evidence-based practices
• Advocate to reduce hunger, food insecurity and health disparities
• Promote independence and well being  through health promotion, chronic disease management strategies and public policy advocacy
• Lead the future of dietetics in the aging community
• Have valuable member benefits that enhance practice and collaboration.
