Abstract

To celebrate National Eating Disorders Awareness Week (Feb. 24–March 1), The Alliance for Eating Disorders Awareness launched its free findEDhelp app, which can be found on both Android and iOS platforms. The app comes on the heels of the previously launched eating disorders referral website www.findEDhelp.com, according to a press release. Both the app and the website help connect individuals experiencing an eating disorder with practitioners and treatment centers across the country. “In an effort to fill the void, increase access to care, and centralize information on eating disorder treatment centers and practitioners nationwide, we researched and created findEDhelp.com, our comprehensive and inclusive referral website,” said Johanna Kandel, CEO and founder of The Alliance for Eating Disorders Awareness. The goal of the findEDhelp app is to provide access to all levels of care and referrals to specialized treatment for those who are experiencing eating disorders. In an effort to make both the app and the website as inclusive and comprehensive as possible, there is no charge for treatment providers to be listed, and there will never be a cost to be included.
