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.

People who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and more (LGBTQ+) experience unique forms of discrimination and stigma that have significant consequences across various dimensions of health. These healthcare disparities increase the risk for several chronic illnesses and may further feelings of mistrust and disengagement from health care professionals, who often contribute to these instances of stigma. Public health professionals who are equipped with the requisite knowledge, competency, and cultural humility are better able to serve the LGBTQ+ populations, as well as update and change professional practices to improve the quality of care and service being offered. This webinar will review key ways in which developing and strengthening both cultural competence and cultural humility pertaining to LGBTQ+ people is a key aspect of evidence-based public health practice, as well as important resources that exist that can be helpful tools to help professionals engage with this population.
