Webinar: Eating Disorders: Facts and Myths

What is an eating disorder? What are the signs of an eating disorder? Who can have an eating disorder? Education and awareness are important first steps towards building a future where those suffering feel empowered to recover, free of stigma. Join us as we debunk common myths about eating disorders, learn about some of the most prominent signs and symptoms, and discuss how to support someone who is struggling with one. Throughout this webinar, we will touch on the various ways in which eating disorders can affect people of all races, ethnicity, gender identity, and culture. All are welcome!
