Food accessibility in Washington State is championed by policy and local leaders working to build food systems bringing farm fresh foods to tables. State and federal frameworks provide funding for programs like Basic Food and the National School Lunch and Breakfast programs but the link to supporting local agriculture is critical to building a sustainable food infrastructure. Join our expert panel, Bianca Smith, RDN with OSPI, Chris Iberle from the Department of Agriculture and local Farmer/Advocate Siri Erickson-Brown to learn how RDNs can support the availability, access, and utilization of local foods.

Washington State Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics

Welcome to the 2026-2027 membership year! As we look ahead, my focus is on strengthening the organizational structure of our Academy, supporting modernization and innovation within the field of dietetics, and fostering a strong, connected community of nutrition professionals across Washington.

This year, we hope to create more opportunities for collaboration, professional engagement, and meaningful connections at both the state and district levels. As our profession continues to evolve locally and nationally, we remain committed to supporting our members through education, advocacy, and community.

Please stay connected through our website, social media, and monthly e-blasts for updates, events, and opportunities to get involved. I am honored to serve in this role and look forward to working alongside all of you this year.
