Anna and I have each worked in the field of eating disorders for almost 20 years. In our work, we’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact eating disorders can have on individuals and their families. There’s much work that needs to be done in awareness, prevention, and treatment. A recent important step is the White House proclaimed that this week, February 21st-27th, 2022, is National Eating Disorders Awareness Week.

We’ll be posting useful information on our social media channels during National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. (Click here to follow us on Instagram; click here to follow us on Facebook). In addition, we highlighted some of our relevant blog posts and podcasts for you here.
