Dietitian Assistant

In response to COVID-19 social distancing recommendations and in an effort to protect our vulnerable clients, Moveable Feast’s Volunteer Program is extremely limited until it is deemed safe to fully open again. Please refer to our main Volunteer Page for current available volunteer opportunities or contact Angie Kelley if you have any questions.

Even if you are unable to join us as a volunteer, we still need your support! Please click here to make a gift to Moveable Feast. We appreciate our fantastic community of supporters and look forward to having you join us again in the future.

Our healthy meal planning starts with the client’s needs. See how we do nutritional assessments and be a friendly face to our clients by accompanying a staff Dietitian on a home visit! Dietitian Assistants also help file charts and assessments, assemble birthday boxes, and enter client data or other projects that may arise.

This volunteer opportunity occurs Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Days and times vary, as it depends on client’s scheduling needs.
