Greetings Fellow GDA Members!
Krista and I as Immediate Past Co-Presidents would like to invite you to apply for one of the many available NYSAND awards below. We were well represented last year at the 100th NYSAND Anniversary Meeting in Lake Placid when Renee Ortolani was awarded Recognized Young Dietitian of the Year! The application process is pretty simple and you are ENCOURAGED to nominate yourself. The deadline for submission to NYSAND is February 1, 2018, so a ways off but not too soon to start thinking about it. Letters of support are also encouraged.
Please let Krista and I know if you are applying.
Best,
Theresa Harte and Krista Campbell
Past Co-Presidents
