ANAD This Is My Brave - The Show

An estimated 28.8 million Americans will have an eating disorder in their lifetime but unfortunately, many of these individuals suffer alone or in silence. We seek to change that during #EatingDisordersAwarenessWeek by supporting our friends @anadhelp with their upcoming production of This Is My Brave - The Show. This community event, live at Northwestern University and streaming online, features twenty-one brave individuals who will take the stage to share their eating disorder recovery journey through song, dance, spoken story, poem and more! Together, we will end the silence and isolation of eating disorders. Will you join us? Learn more at anad.org/brave.
