For Families: A Conversation About Eating Disorders

Knowing how to help our kids who are experiencing an eating disorder can be a terrifying, isolating and overwhelming experience. Learn about disordered eating, what to be aware of, the importance of connection, and strategies that help support recovery.

Join us as Victoria Keddis hosts a conversation with Eating Disorders Therapist & Educator Carmen Kauffman, and Rylee McKinlay, a young person with lived experience, and Terri McKinlay,  a parent with lived experience.

This video presentation will be followed by a facilitated discussion by the Family Peer Support Workers in the Comox Valley.

We will be hosting this in-person event at: Mark Isfeld Secondary (Multipurpose Room)

Location: 1551 Lerwick Rd, Courtenay
