Overview

We are Spark Recovery, an international student driven initiative committed to ending the stigma around teenage and young adult eating disorders. We are building a space on the internet for those fighting eating disorders to share their stories and educate others on what an eating disorder can look like. We publish the stories of teens and young adults affected by eating disorders on our blog. Breaking the stigma means starting a discussion, and Spark Recovery provides a safe space for teens like us to do so. We also aim to provide accessible resources and support for those in eating disorder recovery or seeking treatment. This will primarily be done through: - Informative and educational posts on our Instagram that raise awareness about the lesser known realities of having an eating disorder. - Student-researched articles on our website that break stereotypical eating disorder myths through facts and statistics. - Editorials on how our culture handles eating disorders and how we can do better. Last, we hope to fundraise for accessible eating disorder treatment within underrepresented communities.
