Nutrition

Everyone agrees nutrition is important for good health. Access Alliance Registered Dietitians aim to help nutrition make sense for each and every newcomer to Canada.

Our dietitians offer culturally sensitive one-on-one counselling, Newcomers Cooking Together classes, and community workshops on: healthy eating in Canada, pregnancy and nutrition, shopping for food in Canada, and a variety of other nutrition topics. Our clinic also has a strong partnership with West Toronto Diabetes Education Program (WTDEP).

Our dietitians can be seen at annual Healthy Child Screenings and occasionally at national and international conferences. Students, dietetic interns and volunteers can find exciting learning opportunities and mentorship. For those unable to meet the dietitians in person, there is also a helpful resource page filled with tools and helpful information for you to read and use in whatever way works for you! Please explore the rest of our Nutrition pages to see what’s happening.
