MISSION STATEMENT:
The Eating Disorders Information Network (EDIN) is a
nonprofit organization dedicated to the prevention of eating disorders,
including anorexia, bulimia, compulsive overeating and other forms of
disordered eating, through education, outreach and action.
VISION:
EDIN is committed to addressing the problem of eating disorders
on a societal level. We are devoted to preventing eating disorders,
increasing public awareness of the personal, familial, and
cultural/media pressures which contribute to eating disorders, and
helping those already suffering to find the therapeutic services they
need. The organization strives to serve as a comprehensive resource and
educational guide for those wanting to learn more about eating disorders
and for those seeking help, gathering and distributing information about
available treatment options both in the Atlanta area and nationwide.
OUR VALUES:
We are dedicated to providing the community with quality information
regarding the causes of disordered eating and tools to prevent the
occurrence of full blown eating disorders.
We are committed to educating the community regarding the devastating
effects and warning signs of eating disorders.
We put the development of a healthy body image and self-esteem at the
center of all we do.
We believe that those seeking help should be given all the treatment
resources available in a clear and unbiased manner.
We strive to bring awareness to EDIN’s cause, thus de-stigmatizing the
issue within the community.
We respect individual differences and perspectives in all our personal
and professional interactions.
We value the resources, both human and financial, that are available to
us and always seek to utilize resources in a responsible manner.
