National Eating Disorders Awareness Week

On Monday, Feb 27th at 7:00 PM,

we will be hosting a program to commemorate NEDAW 2012 in Pittsburgh. I will be giving a presentation called "8 Keys to Recovery From an Eating Disorder" based on the book by Carolyn Costin (a friend and a well known author on eating disorders and founder of Monte Nido treatment center in CA and Rain Rock in Oregon). We welcome people in recovery, those seeking help, family, friends and anyone who wants to get more information on eating disorders. I hope we can have a lively discussion as well. Register now.

Everybody Knows Somebody

Our theme this year for NEDAW is that "Everybody Knows Somebody". I think that is becoming more and more true and we need you all to be ambassadors to come to the event, pick up information and then hand it out to people, organizations, schools, etc that need more info on eating disorders. We need all the help we can to continue to get the word out about eating disorders. Register now.

Please download the NEDAW 2012 flyer and feel free to distribute it wherever you can!
