Membership

The Augusta District Dietetic Association is open to Registered Dietitians, and students, looking to engage with our community, promote public awareness, and network with those in the Augusta area. Meetings kick off with our Fall Banquet and conclude with our Spring Workshop, with many opportunities to connect in between. ADDA is committed to providing its members with the latest nutrition information and opportunities to volunteer, connect, and support our local community.
