A Place to Find Community Around IDDSI
We’re excited to share that we created an IDDSI Community Group on LinkedIn so that dietitians, speech language pathologists, food service leaders, industry partners, and other professionals working with IDDSI can support each other.
In this group, we’ll share questions we have about IDDSI, help each other overcome the challenges that come with IDDSI, and discuss our experiences with IDDSI. And yes, we will be celebrating our successes as well!
To mark the start of the IDDSI Community Group, we rounded up the top questions you may have about the group:
