As we kick off National Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we’re excited to highlight one of our partners, Undone Beauty, and the incredible work they’re doing to help more people with eating disorders access treatment.

We are thrilled to announce that Project HEAL's Barriers to Treatment Access Study, in partnership with EAT Lab at the University of Louisville, has received a generous grant from NEDA's Feeding Hope Fund for Clinical Research.

We are so excited to share the latest update on our partnership with Undone Beauty! As we announced in August, we are collaborating with Undone Beauty to raise awareness and funds for eating disorder treatment.

We are so excited to welcome our new HEALers Circle Chair, Colleen Baker, to this role. Colleen Is a licensed clinical social worker specializing in eating disorders and has been with the Project HEAL family since 2013.

Since April, 100% of our program applications have included reports of eating disorders either brought on or made much worse by the pandemic, as well as job loss, income loss, and insurance loss related to the pandemic.

In the midst of an *unpredictable* year, we have been leaning into our partnerships with value-aligned organizations, both in the eating disorder space and across industries. We think it's safe to say that 2020 is teaching us all that we need to work together now more than ever.

As Project HEAL’s CEO, I speak on behalf of our staff, board, and volunteers when I say: The violence and systemic injustice that Black people experience in America is unacceptable. Black lives matter.
