Family and Friends Support Group

Service Description

The Alaska Eating Disorders Alliance (AKEDA) offers a free and confidential support group for Family and Friends supporting a loved one who is experiencing an eating disorder or in the process of recovery. Meetings occur virtually on the third Saturday of each month from 9:30-10:30 am except on holidays. Groups are facilitated by Evelyn Abello, LPC., who will assure that conversations remain safe and supportive. The group will not provide therapy; rather the goal is to serve as a place for support and the building of a positive, pro-recovery community. Helpful articles, videos and other resources are shared in advance to enable you to take care of yourself and support your loved one. Please join us from a quiet, confidential place. You will be able to join using any computer, smartphone, or tablet using the Zoom app. IMPORTANT: When you receive the Zoom login, you may use this for all future support groups. We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming group and are glad that you are reaching out for support.
