JADE: Joint Advocates on Disordered Eating

Join us at Meet the Clubs 11:00am-2:00pm September 4 & 5 🍃

JADE is proud to announce that we will be hosting events for National Eating Disorder Awareness Week next week on campus! Visit us Monday through Wednesday as we promote positive body image with activities, crafts and outdoor meditations! We'll have an awesome keynote speaker, Dr. Theresa Larson DPT, speak for us on Wednesday about eating disorders and body image in the military, don't miss it!

Just a little reminder to stay POSITIVE this weekend (and always)!

Barbie along with many other children's toys unfortunately set a very unrealistic standard of what we should look like to our youth. I think this a positive step for us. Having an "average" very realistic Barbie could be beneficial to the mental health of our future children! What do you think?

A BIG thank you to The Blues Project for hosting such a successful Blues Week!!
