Dietitians of Canada (DC) operates as a national professional association for dietitians and students in Canada, focusing on the intersections of food, nutrition, and health. Headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, it brings together a diverse community of more than 5,000 members from clinical practice, public health, private practice, communications, business, and food service. Over its eight decades of existence, DC works to advance the health of Canadians by supporting leadership, professional development, and knowledge sharing among its members. DC is the only organization in Canada dedicated to representing dietetics professionals and students, coordinating engagement from provincial to federal levels. Members participate in advocacy, education, and public-awareness efforts, and connect through professional networks and shared resources. Among its ongoing initiatives is Nutrition Month, which has been promoted for decades and continued in 2022 to foster conversations about nutrition and the role of dietitians.
