Nutrition Services

Mental Health and Well-Being Services offers a variety of Nutrition Services to the community. From nutrition consultations to cooking demonstrations, we are here to help you achieve your health goals.

Free nutrition consultations

The Harper College Center for Nutrition Counseling (CNC), in collaboration with Mental Health and Well-Being Services, is offering a free health screening, individualized nutrition counseling and nutrition education services to Harper students, alumni, and faculty. The CNC is run by current Harper College dietetic interns and overseen by registered dietitians.

Two people sit across from each other at a desk in an office. One person is typing on a laptop. The other person sits on the opposite side of the desk.

Here are some of the services we can provide

Complete nutrition assessment to develop a plan for a healthy lifestyle
Individualized meal planning and recipes
Analyze food intake
Blood pressure screening, body fat measurements, blood sugar screening and cholesterol screening. A once a month meeting with a dietetic intern to discuss goals and progress will also be included.

Students, employees, alumni, and community members are able to schedule free nutrition consultations with the dietetic interns. After completing the sign-up form, you will then be sent information about how to schedule your first initial nutrition consultation with one of the interns. Consultations can be completed virtually or in-person, depending on the needs of the individual.

Sign-up beginning in the fall.

Cooking Demonstrations

Join us for a complimentary event with the Dietetic Interns, Campus Recreation, Mental Health and Well-Being Services and Hawks Care Resource Center to gain valuable insights into your well-being and nutrition while sampling free food. Registered attendees will receive a "take & make" bag filled with all the ingredients and recipes to make each one at home.

Five people stand together in a kitchen, each holding plates or cups with small food items.

Fall dates coming soon!
