BIPOC COMMUNITY CARE
Formerly known as Body Reborn, this program facilitates a virtual, intersectional community for those who struggle with disordered eating and have faced systemic barriers due to race (e.g. those that originate for people of color).
Over the course of 8 weeks, participants will engage in education and live discussion around systemic oppression, trauma, and their effects on our relationship with food and body. Space is limited, therefore we ask that you please complete the application as thoughtfully and authentically as possible.
Two Pillars of BIPOC Community Care
Body Liberation
These workshops are designed to provide insights into reasons why strained relationships with food develop and how you can develop a more supported relationship with your body.
You’ll learn practical techniques to address your disordered eating and develop a personalized healing plan.
Peer Support
Our peer support group provides a space for those seeking community on their mental health journey, to help you foster connection with like-minded people who have also had similar experiences.

A Note of Care
Groups will discuss the intersection of body image, systemic bias, oppression, and other potentially challenging topics in a carefully facilitated, supportive space. While we aim for safety, complete trigger avoidance cannot be guaranteed. You may gain the most benefit from the space if you (a) are already engaging, comfortably, in these reflections individually; and/or (b) are comfortable in your outpatient care level.
