February 1st to 7th is Eating Disorders Awareness Week. 

This week is dedicated to raising awareness and understanding, challenging stigma and barriers, and recognizing that eating disorders can affect individuals of all identities and backgrounds, in all scopes and spaces.

Nearly 79% of federally incarcerated women in Canada live with at least one mental health concern, including anxiety, mood disorders, PTSD, eating disorders, and more. To support our clients as they live with and navigate all mental health concerns, we are committed to providing comprehensive programming and one-on-one support in spaces that are safe, empathetic, body positive, and empowerment-focused.
