The contemporary issue that is facing many young adolescents today that we have chosen to discuss and explain is eating disorders. 

 

Through this website we will be explaining what eating disorders are, who is affected by them, what are the causes, why it affects young adolescents, and the warning signs of eating disorders. 

 

Most importantly, we will identify and introduce ways how to help cope, deal, and prevent  eating disorders.

We also provide a list of resources for kids, teenagers, and adults.
 
This website is to help educate everyone and not just those with an eating disorder. 
 
Our GOAL is to introduce the issue of eating disorders and to make aware the affects of eating disorders, and most importantly, to help those who know of a friend or family member that has or might possibly have an eating disorder.
