Eating Disorders Resources
Eating concerns range from mild problems with food and weight to serious, potentially life-threatening conditions. Eating issues affect a person’s emotional and physical health. The earlier a person with an eating concern seeks treatment, the greater the likelihood of physical and emotional recovery.
The following resources contain useful information about eating disorders and body image. We encourage you to look at the materials and use what you find helpful.
If you know of resources in your area, we encourage you to post a comment and list the resource name and their contact information. Thank you!
