Nutrition Therapy Program

The Nutrition Therapy Program in Waukegan, IL, is dedicated to providing essential nutrition services for children, ensuring access regardless of insurance status. Serving families in the underserved areas north and west of DuPage County, we specialize in enhancing the nutritional health of children with developmental disabilities. Our interdisciplinary approach focuses on addressing individual nutrition risks and disorders through tailored interventions, including improving oral and digestive tolerance, dietary modifications for better growth, and accommodating food allergies. We also assist with transitions from tube feeding to a more varied diet, providing guidance on homemade blenderized formulas. Our mission is to promote healthier lives for children aged birth to 21 who have medically eligible diagnoses or identified eating concerns, ensuring every child has the support they need to thrive.
