Are you a parent or caregiver figuring out how to support the youth in your life to create kind, peaceful relationships with food, their body, and themselves?

This 3-session webinar series will give you a taste of Fueling Freedom, a new program that helps reduce the burden of Disordered Eating on children, youth and families in Manitoba.

These FREE sessions will give you practical tools and guidance you can start using right away. You do not need to attend every session—attend as many or as few as you'd like.

Session 1 – The Cultural Normalization of Disordered Eating
Tuesday, September 29th, 12pm -1pm

In this session, we’ll break down the spectrum of disordered eating behaviours and why youth may lean on these behaviours. You’ll learn about diet culture, how culture affects our relationships with food, and some strategies to help support your loved one.

Session 2 - Supporting Eating for Well-being
Tuesday, October 6th, 12pm -1pm

Together with a Dietitian, you’ll explore how to support your youth in building a positive relationship with food. We’ll give you the tools to use an evidence-supported, weight-neutral approach and supportive nutrition strategies.

Session 3 - Food, Body, and Coping Skills
Tuesday, October 13th, 12pm -1pm

Explore the importance of self-compassion in recovery and prevention and get tools to help develop supportive communication and coping skills. You’ll walk away from this session with strategies to help the youth in your life build a confident relationship with food, their body, and emotions.
