NEDA is dedicated to supporting those affected by eating disorders and to being a catalyst for prevention, cures and access to quality care.
Description:
The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) is the largest nonprofit organization in the United States working to eliminate eating disorders. We serve the needs of communities throughout the US by providing programs, products and services of superior quality that work to prevent, treat and find a cure for eating disorders. NEDA is dedicated to supporting those affected by eating disorders and to being a catalyst for prevention, cures and access to quality care. NEDA sponsors National Eating Disorders Awareness Week, provides educational materials, hosts an annual conference for professionals and family members of those struggling with eating disorders, and is equipped with a toll-free Information and Referral Helpline.
History:
The National Eating Disorders Association was formed in 2001, when Eating Disorders Awareness & Prevention (EDAP) joined forces with the American Anorexia Bulimia Association (AABA), merging the largest and oldest eating disorders prevention and advocacy organizations in the world. The merger was the most recent in a series of alliances that has also included the National Eating Disorder Organization (NEDO) and Anorexia Nervosa & Related Disorders (ANRED).
