Speakers Bureau:

Over 45 members of the EDCT have been trained through our Speakers Bureau training and go out into the community and speak free of charge about eating disorders, body image, nutrition, and much more.  Since its inception in 2003, the Speakers Bureau has reached over 15,000 Tennesseans and is growing each year.  This past year over thirty different EDCT members went out into the community to speak on behalf of the organization. Contact Jennifer Katzenmiller to schedule a Speakers Bureau presentation for your organization or to sign up for our next Speakers Bureau training.

Families Supporting Families:

The Families Supporting Families support groups have grown this year. In Nashville, FSF meets the first and third Monday of each month at the EDCT office, 2120 Crestmoor Rd., Ste. 3000.  The group averages about 14 participants each meeting.  The group is co-facilitated by Connie Horton and Kathy Gaston.  Kathy and Connie are helping states like Washington and Kentucky start their own Families Supporting Families support groups with help from the EDCT Families Supporting Families Facilitator's Training Manual and Guidebook. Having a place to talk with other families about issues related to eating disorders, and how the whole family is affected by them continues to be one of the most important programs of the EDCT.
