National Registered Dieitians' Day

Apparently blogging is a lot like exercising, if you take a couple of days off it's hard to get started again. I apologize for my absence and will attempt to get back on track.


Today, March 10th, is National Registered Deiticians Day. OW has many registered dieticians on staff at our WIC clinic at 25th and L. This clinic is the state's busiest WIC clinic. The dieticians there are listed below. Our thanks and appreciation go our to all of them for their hard work and dedication that they bring to OneWorld and the WIC clinic each day.
