Are you seeking support from someone who understands what you are going through? Through EDF’s mentorship program, we will match you with a mentor who has walked the path and understands the complexity of the recovery journey. This 10-week program will provide one-on-one support during weekly connections. We strongly believe in the power of connection, meaningful conversations, and creating a community of like-minded individuals – factors we attribute to living a life in/towards recovery. We welcome individuals 16+ from all states in the US. Pairs may meet virtually or in person.
We at EDF are absolutely blown away by the massive interest in our blossoming mentorship program. We have received an unprecedented number of applications from members of the community who want to pursue recovery with us.
Please note that this program has a limited number of available mentors, so there is no guarantee you will be paired. Mentee applicants not accepted this round may re-apply next quarter. You must be at least 16 years of age and a resident of the United States to apply.

Part of the EDF X Within Workshop Series
Learning Objectives:
- Name two body systems affected by medical complications of eating disorders.
- Describe the potential medical sequelae of eating disorders.
- Explain one medical complication of eating disorders that can worsen with GLP-1 RA use.
Abstract:
All eating disorders can be associated with serious medical complications affecting every organ system in the body. While the burgeoning availability of weight loss pharmaceuticals has caused great promise for the management of chronic conditions, those with eating disorders who take these medications are at an increased risk for compounded medical sequelae. In this presentation common medical complications of eating disorders and their pathophysiology will be presented. Additionally, the influence of hormone-based pharmacotherapeutics on common eating disorder medical complications will be discussed.
When: Thursday, March 20th
