National Strategy Implementation - Forum 3
You are warmly invited to the third National Eating Disorders Strategy 2023-2033 Implementation Forum. This forum is for all mental health professionals and those that support mental health professionals (e.g. managers, leaders) across role and service setting. During this forum, NEDC will support attendees to understand their role in the National Strategy, providing information, resources, and support networks to guide you in this work. You will hear from speakers representing different services and mental health professions who will speak about the activities that they have undertaken to enhance their service response to eating disorders. There will also be a live Q&A. A mental health professional is an umbrella term for those professions that can provide psychological support and evidence-based psychological treatment for people experiencing an eating disorder. These professions include psychologists, social workers, occupational therapists, psychiatrists, counsellors, mental health nurses, nurse practitioners, and psychotherapists. Together, we can all take action to build a nationally consistent, effective, equitable, and coordinated system of care that meets the needs of people experiencing or at risk of eating disorders and their families, supports, and communities.
