OFFICIAL CALGARY LAUNCH
Friday, September 16 at 10 AM
Kahanoff Centre, Calgary
Room #201, 105- 12 Ave SE
We are very excited to start offering programming in Calgary. CMHA-Calgary is partnering with EDSNA on the launch and connecting us with the local media. As well, our first groups in Calgary will be held at one of the CMHA locations.
The launch will be attended by Associate Minister of Health, Ms. Brandy Payne, EDSNA Founder Moyra McAllister and other dignitaries, community organizations, healthcare professionals and people directed affected by eating disorders.
Following the launch, we are holding a round table discussion with families and individuals affected by eating disorders to learn more about the type of support they want EDSNA to provide in Calgary.
RSVP Sue@EDSNA.ca, if you would like to join us for the launch and/or the discussion. Numbers are limited to contact us early!

BECAUSE OF YOUR FEEDBACK
Consistently, people have been telling us that 6 weeks isn't long enough. So, starting in the fall, our programming for people with eating disorders will be extended to 9 weeks and the support groups for families and loved ones will be 7 weeks in length.

A word from Sue
Summer is a time to restore and reconnect. I will be going down to "summer hours" and only working 4 days a week to make sure that I'm ready and rested for the busy fall we have planned. Hope you are booking some R & R too!
