Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee Meeting 5
Now Webcast-Only, March 12-13
Meeting update: Meeting 5 of the Advisory Committee will be held by webcast only, out of an abundance of caution due to various employer travel restrictions and to ensure a quorum can be reached for the Committee to conduct its work. As this is the last full Committee meeting before they draft their scientific report to the Secretaries, it’s important that all members be able to be part of the public deliberations.
This webcast meeting will cover the same content as originally planned, which includes presentations by each Subcommittee, deliberation by the full Committee, and plans to finalize its work. We encourage the public to join the webcast for the Committee’s deliberations.
