SSCD-CDF Dietitian Award

About this program

The Society for the Study of Celiac Disease (SSCD) and the Celiac Disease Foundation (CDF) offer the SSCD‑CDF Dietitian Award to support registered dietitians’ research, education, community nutrition, or quality‑improvement projects (pediatric or adult) that advance nutrition care for people with celiac disease, providing up to $10,000 for one year. Applicants must be active SSCD members, registered dietitians employed at an accredited institution, and demonstrate a strong commitment to advancing celiac disease research and clinical care. Award funds may not be used for institutional indirect costs, can include up to $1,000 for conference travel, and require a final financial statement and progress report; all publications must acknowledge SSCD and CDF support.
