Who We Are

 

The BridgePoint program contributes to making a difference in the lives of people with eating disorders by opening a path for a process of discovery and recovery.

The voices of participants portray BridgePoint as a "safe and caring community in which we are accepted for who we are. We realize now that we do have choices and we are able to make decisions about our own lives. BridgePoint is a place where we discovered important elements of ourselves and learned to communicate authentically with others".

Recovery is possible no matter the background or identity of an individual. To increase the effectiveness of awareness, advocacy, outreach efforts, and our programs, we are working to create a more inclusive community. This awareness includes challenging stigmas and stereotypes that have long been established as truths, but in reality, are harming those who are suffering. 

BridgePoint is committed to prioritising diversity and inclusion by engaging in education, discussions with different communities and taking  necessary steps to improve representation in our team and our participants. Inclusivity at BridgePoint means that treatment is available for everybody -- all ethnicities, body types, sexuality and genders
