Southern Mississippi Planning and Development District (SMPDD) is soliciting qualifications for a

registered and MS licensed dietitian to provide counseling for our Nutrition Program. Nutrition

counseling is a standardized service as defined by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND) that

provides individualized guidance to individuals who are at nutritional risk because of their health or

nutrition history, dietary intake, chronic illness, or medication use, or to caregivers. Counseling is

provided one-on-one by a registered and licensed dietitian and addresses the options and methods for

improving nutrition status with a measurable goal (Reference: 45 CFR 1321.87). SMPDD operates this

program in the following counties: Covington, Forrest, George, Greene, Hancock, Harrison, Jackson,

Jefferson Davis, Jones, Lamar, Marion, Pearl River, Perry, Stone, and Wayne. Those wishing to

participate must be available within seven (7) working days of contact and must be willing to provide

services in all of the above counties.

• Proof of Registered Dietitian status
