About the Organizations
Project Heal
Project Heal focuses on providing support for eating disorders to as many people as possible regardless of healthcare accessibility and financial status. Their resources break down the common misconception that the only people who have eating disorders are white, young, female, and thin. Project Heal provides life-saving support to people with eating disorders that the healthcare system did not support.
