The Butterfly Foundation's Relationship with EDANN
The Butterfly Foundation has been the catalyst for EDANN providing the opportunity for leaders and experts in the field of eating disorders to work collaboratively. The Butterfly Foundation is the convenor and Lead Agency of EDANN facilitating collaboration and the implementation and management of projects.
The Butterfly Foundation is a not for profit community organisation established in 2002 to support those who suffer from eating disorders and negative body image. The Butterfly Foundation is the only Australian national body for advocacy and leadership for this illness group. The Butterfly Foundation provides support for research, clinical treatment and prevention programs nationally and national awareness strategies.
Our Purpose
Until now Australia has lacked a national forum enabling groups to work towards common goals and effectively plan activities. EDANN will facilitate partnerships, providing a basis for integrated prevention, intervention and management for eating disorders.
