Did you know that more than 29 million Americans will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime and every 52 minutes someone dies as a direct result of their eating disorder?
Unfortunately, less than ⅓ will ever receive access to care. The National Alliance for Eating Disorders, the leading national nonprofit for eating disorders, has worked tirelessly over the past two decades to change these statistics. During the weekend of February 28 - March 2, 2025, I will be participating in The Alliance’s annual NOT ONE MORE Weekend.
Please support me as I join this global movement to ensure that NOT ONE MORE life is lost, NOT ONE MORE child is taken, and NOT ONE MORE precious moment is destroyed by this insidious disease. All proceeds from the NOT ONE MORE Weekend will directly fund their free, weekly, therapist-led, virtual eating disorder support groups!
As an Alliance Support Group Facilitator and an individual in Recovery from my own ED experience, I have witnessed first hand the powerful, life-saving resource these support groups provide to folks in the US and worldwide as the challenge themselves to live life in recovery. The community, connection, and access to care that these groups generate are essential ingredients (and often the ONLY ingredients) to eating disorder recovery our community members have access to. It's been a privlige witnessing the strength and hope group members demonstrate showing up to these group spaces at every point in the recovery journey and I am beyond grateful to the Alliance for their dedication and commitment to helping ANYbody gain access to the vital support we all need and deserve.
In 2024 alone, more than 26,071 individuals from all 50 states and 87 countries around the world attended Alliance groups.The Alliance is the only national nonprofit organization that provides free, weekly, therapist-led eating disorders support groups; free referrals for all levels of care through a therapist-staffed helpline and findEDhelp; and unique and empowering Southern Smash events. Simply put, The Alliance saves lives.
Please consider donating to my page so that I can help The Alliance continue to make a difference nationwide!
