Let’s “Color Outside the Lines” for Pride!
In honor of National Pride Month (June), Project HEAL is expanding the eating disorder conversation to include more LGBTQ+ voices. The week of June 27, we will be hosting different high-impact conversations each day on Instagram Live, amplifying a variety of LGBTQ+ stories aimed at raising awareness and creating a safe space for both learning and healing.
A PROUD LETTER FROM OUR CEO
For me, Pride means belonging to a community, it means creating more space for healing, and it means bravely and openly being myself.
At Project HEAL, Pride isn't an exclusive celebration just for people who belong to the LGBTQ+ community. The simple fact is that the eating disorder recovery community includes a lot of LGBTQ+ people and we have to make the recovery community safer for them.
PRIDE: THERE’S ALWAYS A FIRST
Lindsey Hall gets vulnerable in her latest, beautifully written blog post as she shares about her first queer love and how that exacerbated her eating disorder.
HEALING WITH PRIDE
Project HEAL is hosting a Pride Week on Instagram Live! We’ll be joined by 8 magical individuals for 7 incredible conversations amplifying the LGBTQ+ voices in the eating disorder community. Each Live is a fundraiser for our LGBTQ+ Treatment Equity Project. We hope you’ll tune in!
My Healing is the Pride Movement Embodied
In this blog post, our new Development & Marketing Manager writes about how their experience of healing from their eating disorder mirrors the core values of the LGBTQ+ Pride movement.
SUBMIT A GUEST BLOG
Project HEAL would love to share any and all stories that are aligned with our mission, vision and/or values. If you have struggled with an eating disorder, have experienced and/or overcome barriers to accessing treatment, or are an ED provider and/or recovery advocate — we want to hear from you!
We are especially interested in sharing stories from voices often excluded from and/or underrepresented in the eating disorder recovery community. Submitting a blog proposal does not necessarily guarantee publishing — we reserve the right to respond with proposed edits (for your approval) or pass on publishing your proposed content.
Thank you in advance for wanting to share your story with us and our community!
