Legacy of Hope Summit Report

Picture
March 8th, 2021

From Dr. Cheri Levinson: "I was honored to be a part of the Legacy of Hope Summit that spent 3 days together and many, many more hours finalizing this report to reflect the voices across our field and of those we serve. Our goal is to provide a report and recommendations on the state of eating disorders in the United States. My hope is that this document can be an impetus for change so that we can build a better world for everyone who suffers or loves someone with an eating disorder." 

From the Legacy of Hope Organizer: "Today’s release of The Legacy of Hope Summit Report marks the culmination of 15 months of hard work by a cross-disciplinary group of some of this country’s most highly-respected experts and thought leaders in the field of eating disorders. The consensus-based Report includes a series of goals relating to 5 issues that are fundamental to improving care for the diverse array of individuals whose lives are impacted by eating disorders: (1) early detection, intervention, and prevention; (2) accessibility, affordability, and accountability of care; (3) standards of care; (4) research and research funding; and (5) advocacy, education, and legislation. The Report also contains recommended strategies for achieving those goals, as well as a glimpse into the unique challenges that those suffering from eating spectrum disorders and those dedicated to their care are likely to confront in a post-COVID-19 world. The fact that the Report already is endorsed by nearly 100 other stakeholders in the field is a testament to the quality of its content, the wisdom and integrity of its authors, and the potential it has to serve as a catalyst of hope and healing for the millions who suffer at the hands of these life-threatening illnesses. It has been the highest privilege of my life to have walked alongside this amazing group of professionals on what all recognize as a first step on this critically important journey. My hope (and theirs) is that their work will encourage others to join their hands, hearts, and minds in a concerted effort to better understand, treat, and, ultimately, prevent all eating spectrum disorders." 

The University of Louisville EAT Lab is excited to be a part of this exciting and important effort in improving the lives of those with eating disorders!
