I'm so glad it's going to be in Utah now!It's just for professionals, right? I'll have to tell my therapist about it, she's been frantically looking for ED training since she's starting to get more ED patients and only knows what you have in your book.

I want to give her all the information about it possible- Do you have to join IAEDP to attend and get training, etc? Thanks!

[Sue Connor]

Thank you so much Jenni for spreading the word on Utah's new chapter. We are hoping for a good turn out of clinicians. I think you will see lots of exciting ED recovery projects happening in Utah in the future. Sue Connor, Ph.D.

PS. Everyone is welcome to attend future training sessions and community awareness events, Marylynn. Your therapist does not have to be an IAEDP member. But memberships does offer certain benefits and discounts.

Thanks for your comments :)

If you live in Utah, please help spread the word. This is an amazing opportunity!
