Info On Eating Disorders

One percent of all female adolescents have anorexia, and four out of every 100 college-aged women have bulimia.

Boys are not untouched by eating disorders: The number of them who are diagnosed with eating disorders is increasing.

Connecticut Counselors will present “Eating Disorders,” a free informative program to help recognize and seek help for those who may have issues (or know of others who may need help) on Tuesday, November 27, at 7:30 pm. The program will be held at Santosha, at 27 Hawleyville Road.

Presenters Lauren Wolfe, NCC, and Karen Schuam, LPC, will help attendees focus on recognizing and understanding eating disorders. They will also offer ways to raise children with healthy self-images.

Seats are limited so reservations are being requested. Call Ms Schaum at 270-9888 for reservations or additional information.
