Parents looking for treatment options for their child are often faced with confusing and conflicting information. This is particularly the case when trying to decipher whether family-based treatment is a fit for your child and family. You could spend a great deal of time trying to sort it all out…while the eating disorder continues to inflict increasing damage.
In order to better understand what family-based treatment entails, I encourage you to review the materials at the following websites:

The parent community supported by these organizations is lively and supportive. Ask your toughest questions and you may start to get the answers you need.

Thank you so much for the links. The growing world of parent activism is a sign of a change that I believe will be helpful to the whole ED world: families working together toward improved treatment and FULL RECOVERY!
