One meaningful way members can find connection is through iaedp Special Interest Groups (SIGs) or communities of practice. SIGs provide opportunities for deeper engagement for members seeking connection, learning, belonging, or a way to give back to the profession.

Membership in a SIG is open to all iaedp Foundation members with an interest in the group’s focus. SIGs or communities of practice are more than discussion groups they are spaces where members can connect, learn, contribute, and feel part of a professional community committed to advancing eating disorders care.

If you are interested in a SIG, you are encouraged to explore the iaedp event calendar, participate in upcoming SIG and community of practice programs, share expertise, and consider how these communities can support their professional journey while advancing the collective work of the iaedp Foundation.

Food safety is important. So is food fear. For many people with eating disorders, particularly those with ARFID, OCD-related presentations, or significant food anxiety concerns about contamination, ingredients, or food handling are not quirks. They are clinically significant barriers to nourishment and recovery. On World Food Safety Day, iaedp recognizes practitioners working to understand and address the full complexity of how people relate to food.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/eating-disorders-the-facts/202605/when-are-you-truly-recovered-from-an-eating-disorder

Eating disorder recovery goes beyond symptoms, including mental and physical healing. It means living fully again. It is a personal, non-linear journey, not a strict endpoint.

Today is World Eating Disorders Action Day, and the theme says it all: Stop Stigma. Start Care. Together.

Stigma is a clinical barrier. When eating disorders are dismissed as choices or failures, people wait to ask for help, and outcomes suffer. The professionals in our community know better. Today, we're asking everyone to show it.

Share something today. Your why. Your work. Your truth.
