Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A survey was developed to assess the level of participation and the membership interests of the Public Health Nutrition Practice Group (PHNPG). Forty-six percent (500 members) returned a completed survey. More than 80% of members believe PHNPG to be their main professional practice area "home" within the Council on Practice structure. Members overwhelmingly viewed practice group contributions as a responsibility, with personal career benefits being of secondary importance. Reading the practice group's newsletter and voting in elections were major areas of involvement. However, willingness to contribute time was a positive finding. Areas of interest and issues of greatest concern were identified. Results of the survey can be used to prepare long-range plans for PHNPG. Membership involvement in practice group activities is the key to an increase in re-enrollments and in new memberships. |
