FamilySmart | For Families: A Conversation About Eating Disorders

Event Date
-
Event Location
British Columbia: Virtual

Every month, FamilySmart hosts online events for parents & caregivers who are parenting a child or youth with a mental health and/or substance use challenge called "in the know." Watch a video and share experiences and strategies that help in the hard moments and focus on strengthening our understanding and connection with our kids.

Knowing how to help our kids who are experiencing an eating disorder can be a terrifying, isolating and overwhelming experience. Learn about disordered eating, what to be aware of, the importance of connection, and strategies that help support recovery. Learn as Victoria Keddis hosts a conversation with Eating Disorders Therapist & Educator Carmen Kaufmann, and Rylee McKinlay, a young person with lived experience, and Terri McKinlay, a parent with lived experience.

Join us and other families for this video presentation and discussion that's facilitated by a FamilySmart Family Peer Support Worker.
