If someone you know is exhibiting signs or thoughts of struggling with an eating disorder, intervening during the early stages of development can significantly increase the likelihood of preventing the onset of a full-blown eating disorder. It also leads to greater chance of a full recovery. It can prevent years of struggle and can even save lives. A key goal of the National Eating Disorders Association’s NEDAwareness Week is to direct individuals to a free online screening for eating disorders. Counseling, disability support and student wellness is available to provide resources and assist you at any time.
