Every Australian deserves access to quality nutrition services to improve their health and well-being.

Yet, many in our communities face barriers to receive the support they need.

That’s why Dietitians Australia is taking action and we need your voice. 

Without meaningful change, some of Australia’s most vulnerable could miss out on vital nutrition support and dietetic care. Your help can make a significant difference.

Sign our petition to call for: 

National guarantee for nutritious mealtimes in early childcare: The guarantee should be supported by Accredited Practising Dietitians and include dedicated funding and an overhaul of food and nutrition standards.

Better access to dietetic care for Australians with chronic illness: Reduce out-of-pocket costs by providing Medicare rebates for a minimum of 12 dietitian services per year for chronic condition management and access to longer appointments through Medicare.

Better access to dietetic care for NDIS participants: By increasing prices for NDIS therapy supports, including dietetic services, in line with recent wage increases of 3.19%. 

In a world full of nutrition misinformation, it makes a big difference to have a professional who can help you sort fact from fiction. Dietitians take the confusion out of nutrition by providing clear, tailored advice based on the latest evidence to support each person’s health goals.
