INDHCC Donation



The wonderful legacy shared by the Indiana Dietitians in Healthcare Communities (INDHCC) we would like to highlight. A total $24,941.13 in funds was donated to IAND in June after the INDHCC practice group dissolved. It was a productive organization of RD's for many years, where many memories and friendships were made. The group's impact will remain strong, as funds will be utilized for student scholarships, our annual meeting (ex..speakers), and future endeavors as determined by our public policy team. On behalf of the IAND Board of Directors and members, thank you to all who made this donation possible.

President's Message


Fall is right around the corner 🍂


I can’t believe it is the end of August with kiddos going back to school and trying to remember the routine I had before summer. 


Your IAND Board has worked hard this summer to identify opportunities and ways to increase networking throughout the state, provide more CEUs, and connect more students to our profession. I am so proud of the work each board member has put into making the best membership benefits. Each initiative team has identified two strategies to assist our members in deepening our profession. Additionally, the IAND Districts and Regions have many exciting events coming to a town near you. You can find out more and how to register on our social media accounts. 


IAND would like to highlight our Hoosier members in our newsletter and social media. Each month we will spotlight a different member. To place your name (or a friend) on the docket, complete this quick survey. We know all of our Hoosier members are working hard providing great services to their community members - so let’s see them!


Follow and tag us on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram to share the work you are doing in your community. We would love to see your pictures! This is a great space to learn of upcoming CEUs, networking events, and important updates within our profession.


Stay happy and healthy,

Tarrah Westercamp, MS, RDN, SNS

IAND President
