National Eating Disorders Awareness Week extends from the last week in February through March 2, 2013, but the entire month of February focuses on educating the public about eating disorders. Volunteers and healthcare professionals throughout the United States and abroad will help spread the word about eating disorders to promote awareness. Many universities are offering eating disorder screenings, but contact nearby universities if you are interested. Some screenings are only available to current students. The public can also take a complimentary online eating disorder screening at http://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/nedawareness-week. If you would like to share information about other events or services scheduled during National Eating Disorders Week, please feel free to post them.
