A resolution supporting the designation of the week of September 14 through September 18, 2026, as "Malnutrition Awareness Week".

Malnutrition Awareness Week would be observed September 14–18, 2026 to spotlight prevention, identification, and treatment of malnutrition. The resolution calls malnutrition a serious public health problem tied to poverty, food insecurity, and unequal access to care and highlights high risk among infants, children, older adults, people with chronic disease, American Indian and Alaska Native households, and communities of color. It recognizes federal child nutrition programs and Older Americans Act nutrition services, Medicare coverage for medical nutrition therapy, ongoing federal research, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' role with the Malnutrition Care Score.
