“Dial-A-Dietitian” Launched!

The KDDA officially launches “Dial-A-Dietitian,” becoming the first city in Tennessee and the 19th in the U.S. to offer the program. Spearheaded by Pat Wallin, the service featured a 24-hour hotline where residents could leave nutrition questions for volunteer registered dietitians to answer. Over the program’s life, around 60 volunteer registered dietitians would donate their time to field thousands of community questions.
