Dietitian Licensure Compact

NHAND is introducing and supporting the Dietitian Licensure Compact. This compact will allow eligible registered dietitians to practice in all states that join the compact. The goal is to eliminate barriers to practice and client care, while also ensuring public protection and enhancing a state’s ability to protect public safety. The following states have passed the groundbreaking Dietitian Licensure Compact legislation: Nebraska (April 2024), Alabama (May 2024), and Tennessee (May 2024).

Other benefits include:

  • Enhancing the mobility of RD

  • Improving access to professional RD services

  • Improving continuity of care when clients travel or relocate

  • Supporting relocating military spouses and families

  • Enhancing public safety
