86% of those with an eating disorder report onset before the age of 20. This doesn't mean that only young people have eating disorders – it means that a lot of eating disorder behaviors start young. Early detection of EDs can mean better treatment outcomes, reduced risk of long-term damage, and improved quality of life.

Eating disorders are complex mental disorders that require professional treatment, but due to access barriers, stigma, and misinformation, many people do not receive care. Together we can expand access and fight stigma and misinformation so that more don't have to suffer without help. The Emily Program's treatment centers treat eating disorders in people of all ages and genders. Our vision is a world without eating disorders, where all those suffering can find peace with food and their body.

An estimated 1 in 5 U.S. adults and 1 in 6 U.S. youth (aged 6-17) experience mental illness each year. Although mental health conditions are real, common, and treatable, shame and stigma can prevent someone from seeking potentially life-saving help. In order for everyone suffering to get the diagnosis and treatment they need, we must continue to break down negative biases around mental illness and widely acknowledge that mental health is just as important as physical health.
