Youth athletics can be powerful protective environments, but only when adults are equipped to recognize warning signs and act early.

During Eating Disorders Awareness Week, Mental Health Colorado is proud to partner with Athlete EDGE at EDCare, a specialized eating disorder treatment program for athletes ages 13+ that addresses the significant mental health impact of these illnesses.

Alongside 24/7 crisis support via 988 and free mental health screenings through Mental Health Colorado, we are elevating SB26-060: Youth Coaches Mental Health Education & Concussion Awareness, which empowers coaches with education and strengthens parent notification when concussions may affect emotional well-being.

Prevention, education, and coordinated care work together to protect young athletes — on and off the field.

📝 We’ve published a longer-form blog exploring how SB26-060 connects to Eating Disorders Awareness Week, the intersection of athletics and mental health, and why early education matters.

Athletes and performers are often taught to push through discomfort to succeed. But when the drive to be the best leads to unbalanced training or eating behaviors, stigma and fear of falling behind can make it hard to ask for help. Eating disorders in athletes are frequently overlooked, even though they carry serious mental and physical risks. Greater education and awareness among coaches, families, institutions, and athletes themselves is essential.

Athlete EDGE at EDCare offers specialized eating disorder treatment designed specifically for athletes and performers. Our experienced team helps individuals build recovery-focused skills that support both performance and everyday life. Learn more online and take the next step toward support. www.athleteEDGE.care

EDCare Kansas City celebrated Eating Disorders Awareness Week at Johnson County Community College today!

College can be a time of transition, pressure, and change. For many students, eating disorders can emerge or intensify during these years and often go unnoticed. Raising awareness on campus helps reduce stigma and reminds students they’re not alone and that support is available.

If you or someone you know may be struggling, EDCare offers free, confidential assessments to help explore next steps and connect with care. https://eatingdisorder.care/free-assessment/

Mental health and eating disorder concerns don't appear overnight. They often begin with subtle shifts — particularly after injury, concussion, or time away from sport.

Research shows that youth who sustain a concussion face increased risk for emotional and psychological challenges. SB26-060: Youth Coaches Mental Health Education & Concussion Awareness ensures parents are informed when concussions may impact mental health, strengthening early communication.

Mental Health Colorado, through our partnership with Athlete EDGE at EDCare, which provides specialized athlete-centered eating disorder care and coordinated support with families and schools, are reinforcing the importance of early identification before concerns escalate.

Eating disorders affect people of all sizes, shapes, and backgrounds. Yet many individuals go undiagnosed or unsupported due to bias. Cultural stereotypes, societal assumptions, and medical provider bias can all play a role, especially when someone does not fit a narrow image of what an eating disorder is “supposed” to look like.

At EDCare, we believe everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and taken seriously. We provide respectful, evidence-based care rooted in equity and understanding. A free, confidential assessment is available to help start the conversation about support. https://eatingdisorder.care/free-assessment/

Eating disorders can develop at any age, including mid-life. These experiences are often overlooked or misunderstood, yet they can be especially challenging as the body may have a harder time recovering from the effects over time. Stigma and age-related assumptions can delay recognition and support, making awareness even more important.

As a community, we can help by acknowledging that eating disorders are not limited by age and by encouraging compassion and timely care. EDCare is here to support individuals with evidence-based, compassionate treatment. Free, confidential assessments are available to help you take the next step. https://eatingdisorder.care/free-assessment/

No two recovery journeys look the same, and everyone deserves care that feels safe, affirming, and supportive.

Women are diagnosed with eating disorders far more often than men, yet men are significantly less likely to be recognized or receive treatment. The false belief that eating disorders only affect women creates shame for men and boys who are struggling, often leading to denial of symptoms and hesitation to seek help. These missed or delayed diagnoses are a serious barrier to care and highlight the need for greater awareness and inclusion.

At EDCare, we are committed to changing this narrative. Our gender-inclusive programs offer compassionate, evidence-based care for individuals of all genders. With the right support, healing is possible. We offer a free, confidential assessment to help you take the next step toward care. https://eatingdisorder.care/free-assessment/
