What We Do
We believe every community should have access to high-quality eating disorder care—no matter their zip code, background, or resources.
Our programs are designed to be:
- Practical and immediately applicable—so you can take skills back to your patients right away.
- Evidence-based and family-centered—rooted in multidisciplinary care.
Trauma-informed and culturally sensitive—reflecting the diverse realities of the people you serve.
Our Offerings
Immersive 2–day in-person workshops that provide hands-on, career-enhancing training across medical, psychiatric, nutrition, and allied health disciplines. Attending the workshops will also help you build a network of ED-informed providers.
EDPEN is equity focused: revenue from events and donations funds free or low-cost education for community health providers in under-resourced settings.
Our Partners Make Our Work Possible
EDPEN relies on the support of our incredible partners to bring vital eating disorder treatment education into every community.
