Wellness Consultations
1-on-1 Nutrition Consultations
Free nutrition consultations are available for current TWU students. They are scheduled with a Vandagriff Endowment Scholar, or a Nourishing Space student coaches. The Vandagriff Endowment Scholar has a bachelor’s degree in nutrition, additional training in exercise and nutrition, and is a current graduate student in our Nutrition Program. Student coaches from A Nourishing Space are all senior level undergraduate students majoring in nutrition/dietetics or graduate nutrition students. Their courses in nutrition include Medical Nutrition Therapy I and Nutrition Education and Counseling.
The Vandagriff Scholar and the student coaches are not Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDN). Your consultation will include screening for any medical conditions or nutrition problems which may prohibit them from providing you with individualized nutrition recommendations. If you are not eligible for this free service, you will receive a referral to Student Health Services and other resources as appropriate.
This program is made possible through support and collaboration with TWU Health Studies, Nutrition & Food Services, and the Jane Nelson Institute for Women’s Leadership as a means of providing experiential learning that empowers student health and wellness. Reach out to the Health and Wellbeing Initiative with any questions.
