Our dietetic students spent an unforgettable week in Anacoco, LA, serving as part of the medical staff at Lions Louisiana Diabetes Camp. They supported campers with type 1 diabetes by helping them count carbohydrates, assisted dietitians, nurses, and doctors with nightly blood sugar and ketone checks, provided education, and joined in all the fun camp activities.

They also connected with fellow interns from the Nicholls and McNeese programs, forming lasting friendships and creating wonderful memories together.

We are so grateful for this special week with the campers. Thank you for having us again Lions Camp! 🐺💙🦁

FranU’s dietetic students led an awesome presentation at Summer Camp at FranU, helping teens debunk nutrition myths vs. facts from social media. No more TikTok confusion, just real talk and science based knowledge!
Shoutout to our future dietitians for inspiring the next generation! 💙🐺☀️
