NourishED Research Foundation

NRFi is a nonprofit organization that uses research to nourish knowledge & empower hope for under-served individuals impacted by eating disorders (EDs) and their social justice roots.

We  provide accessible, affordable, & inclusive resources for under-served indvidiuals with EDs. We provide accredited trainings for health & social workers that use current research to improve ED education, awareness, detection, screening, & care. We use social media & public speaking campaigns to raise awareness about EDs & their social justice implications to change the environments EDs occur in. 

We dispel the "SWAG" misconception that ascribes EDs to "skinny white affluent girls." In fact, individuals who use government assistance & members of the BIPOC & LGBTQ2+ communities have 2-3 x higher ED risk & prevalence rates than their white, cis-gendered, heterosexual peers, underscoring the role of social justice issues in contributing to EDs. 

We believe a better tomorrow begins today. Join us!
