Eating Disorders Awareness Week 

Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2025: Embracing Possibilities

Eating Disorders Awareness Week takes place February 1-7 every year in Canada. This year’s campaign, Embracing Possibilities, highlighted the power of community-driven solutions, innovative care models, and insightful educational opportunities that aim to transform the eating disorder care landscape. By working together, we can break down barriers and illuminate pathways to equitable, accessible, and inclusive support for all. 

Eating disorders affect people of all genders, sexual orientations, ages, socioeconomic classes, abilities, races, and ethnic backgrounds. That is why eating disorder groups across Canada unite to mark EDAW with a national week of action aimed at educating the public, highlighting available supports, and advocating for meaningful change.

EDAW is a collective effort from coast-to-coast-to-coast. Participating organizations across the country will host local events, light landmarks in purple, and engage in public education campaigns to raise awareness and foster understanding about eating disorders.
