National Eating Disorders Awareness Week

Aloria Health, UWM Counseling Services and the UWM Psychology Clinic will host a viewing of “America The Beautiful” on Thursday, March 1, as part of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. The event will start at 5:30 p.m. in UWM Student Union Room 280.

A panel of professionals will be available to answer questions after the movie. Free eating disorder screenings, T-shirt decorating and pizza will be provided.

The week will be observed from Feb. 26 through March 4. The National Eating Disorders Association estimates that 30 million Americans struggle with full-blown eating disorders and millions more battle food and body image issues that have untold negative impacts on their lives.
