ANAD POLICIES

ANAD policies encourage people affected by eating disorders to make their own decisions in regard to their care and treatment. We provide information and support, but we do not make decisions for anyone suffering from an eating disorders. ANAD programs and services are not a substitute for medical or psychological treatment.

Resource persons and everyone associated with ANAD should abide by these policies.

Resource persons may share their experiences, make suggestions for the consideration of those seeking support or counsels, and assist them to formulate their own choices.

All ANAD services are free. However, those receiving ANAD services are invited to support ANAD programs by making a donation. ANAD is a non profit organization which provides multiple services with very limited funds.
