Why: Title protection only, no licensure.

Colorado protects the dietitian title but does not issue a practice license, leaving nothing for a compact privilege to attach to. A 2025 licensure-related measure (HB25-1220) was vetoed by the Governor on May 23, 2025.

What to ask for in Colorado

Ask for dietitian licensure first. The compact comes after.

Your state doesn't license dietitians, so the compact isn't available there yet. You're asking for licensure first.
