💜 Eating Disorder Awareness – Community Focused

This week we recognize Eating Disorder Awareness, bringing attention to a condition that often goes unseen. Eating disorders are serious, but with early support, education, and compassionate care, recovery is possible.

Our Community Health Care Advocate is here on Tuesdays and is available to help connect individuals and families with support, resources, and next steps. If you or someone you love is struggling, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

💜 You are seen. You are valued. Help is available.
