About VACCEB
For over 30 years, the Vietnamese American Community Center of the East Bay has served as a vital resource for low-income Southeast Asian and other underrepresented immigrant communities across the San Francisco Bay Area.

This is an ideal opportunity for a dietetics professional committed to equitable access to nutritious meals for low-income and immigrant seniors.

Submit monthly menus and nutritional analysis to the AAA Senior Nutritionist at least 4 weeks prior to use, and finalize any requested revisions in a timely manner.
Serve as the primary liaison between VACCEB, County nutrition personnel, and caterers to ensure ongoing contract compliance.
Conduct regular meetings with caterers and attend all County-mandated nutrition meetings.
Assess, qualify, and inspect prospective food vendors in accordance with County requirements prior to onboarding.
Conduct quarterly reviews and on-site inspections of contracted food vendors to verify continued compliance with food safety, sanitation, and nutrition standards.
Develop an annual nutrition education plan (covering both congregate andhome-delivered participants) for submission to the AAA Senior Nutritionist by July 1 each year.
Lead or oversee at least four nutrition education sessions/workshops annually, including one focused on food safety and sanitation.
Approve all menu substitutions in advance and provide guidance on therapeutic or texture-modified diet requests in consultation with clients' healthcare providers, as needed.
Provide ongoing guidance on nutrition and dietary compliance while ensuring cultural responsiveness to the communities VACCEB serves.
