    Are you a parent caring for a young person (aged 18-25 years) experiencing an eating disorder?

    Eating Disorders Victoria has received funding to deliver a series of workshops for carers in 2024. Carers in the community expressed significant interest in participating in a program designed for carers, and we are excited to be able to offer programs to meet the different needs of those in a caring role.

    What is the Collaborative Care Skills Workshop?


    The Collaborative Care Skills Workshop (CCSW) is designed for people who provide care or support to a person experiencing an eating disorder. CCSW is a structured workshop that will be delivered over two days (consecutive Saturdays), with content that builds over each session. This evidence-based program was developed by Professor Janet Treasure and has been shown to improve the burden and distress that carers can experience while supporting their loved one. The workshop seeks to improve carer wellbeing, and support carers to develop coping strategies and increase problem solving skills.

    Who is this workshop for?


    This two-day workshop is specifically for parents of young people aged 18-25 years who may or may not live in the family home. It is recommended that both parents (or one parent and another adult family member) supporting the young person attend this workshop together.

    Participants must be able to commit to attending both sessions to get the full benefit of this program. If you are unable to attend both sessions, please reach out to the Education team for alternative options.
