title: Nutrition in the Humphrey tradition.
abstract: This is only a partial overview of some of the activities within DHEW related to nutrition, with a particular focus on the Nutrition Coordinating Committee. Although the activities are already broad, they will expand as we identify additional problems and decide on appropriate solutions. Let me call on the members of The American Dietetic Association to assist us in our efforts to assign priorities to our activity. My discussion began with nutrition education, because this is a priority for both The American Dietetic Association and DHEW. We would welcome your help now and in the future as we attempt to make our programs in nutrition education and information more effective, more available, and more responsive to the needs of the American people. Nutrition in the Humphrey tradition is alive and well in DHEW.
