April is Autism Acceptance Month and at The Healing Connection, this is a time to reflect on how we celebrate diversity, understanding, and inclusion not only this month, but all year long.

Some studies estimate that around 20–30% of adults with eating disorders also have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Although each individual's experience is different, overlapping traits that could indicate a link between ASD and eating disorders include rigid thought processes or routines, sensory processing issues, and challenges with emotional regulation.

At The Healing Connection, we strive for our services to be accepting, inclusive, and supportive for all!

Why consistent nutritional intake matters:

Consistent and steady nutrition throughout your day supports not only your mood, but also your ability to maintain energy and focus. Nutritional intake also supports the physical healing process and helps you build a sense of trust with your body.

This , we want to show our support for transgender individuals and highlight the importance of increased awareness of the challenges gender-diverse communities face.

In a study from 2019, the prevalence of eating disorders in transgender college students was shown to be as high as 17.6%, compared to 0.2% for cisgender men and 1.8% for cisgender women. Eating disorder behaviors can become a method for individuals to cope with experiences of gender dysphoria, which is something many transgender individuals may experience. It is vital that eating disorder care is provided in a way that is gender-affirming.

March is Self-Harm Awareness Month.

If you or a loved one struggle with self-harm, you are not alone. Self-harm is often used a way to cope with or numb from emotional distress and overwhelm.

Through developing healthier ways to find relief and cope with your emotions, recovery is possible.

A Heartfelt Thank You from The Healing Connection

This past Saturday, Voices of Hope brought our community together in a powerful way. Lived‑experience, professionals, students, advocates, artists, and neighbors gathered with one shared purpose: to raise awareness and strengthen support for eating disorder care.

As our first community collaborative awareness event, it was a milestone that was made possible through partnership. We are deeply grateful to WNYCCCED, , and every member of The Healing Connection who helped bring this vision to life. When organizations unite around healing and hope, the impact is felt far beyond the room.

To our performers, artists, and community vendors: thank you for sharing your gifts and creating an atmosphere of connection and courage. Your presence made the afternoon vibrant and meaningful.

The voices of those in our community who have been impacted by an eating disorder- you were the highlight of our day.  Thank you for your courage, trust, and confidence in sharing your story.

A very special thank you to Cara Conrow of for serving as our MC with such heart, and to Assemblymember Lunsford for your thoughtful remarks and continued commitment to mental health advocacy.

This event was only the beginning. We look forward to many more opportunities to stand together, uplift voices, and expand access to compassionate eating disorder care.
