create an educational program for middle school students to raise awareness for those suffering from eating disorders.

This education program could be installed in middle schools across the nation in hopes of raising awareness about the causes and effects of eating disorders on young girls. This program would be both for the male and female students in order to best educate preteens on the effects of harmful words and unfair expectations of body image. Eating disorders are a known issue to everyone, however, it is felt that it is not addressed as much as it could be on how to prevent them or what to do when we think someone has one. Also by making the boys attend they may come to realize all the pressures put on girls to look a certain way not only by themselves and their friends, but society and men also.
