The next National Eating Disorders Screening Day will be held in February, 2000. Screenings differ depending on the settings in which they are taking place. Participating colleges and eating disorders treatment centers are encouraged to adapt the program to suit their particular atmospheres.
Many campuses try to keep their screenings to the length of a college class period.
However, most participating institutions utilize the materials provided by the national office and implement a program that includes an educational section with the screening. All screenings are free and anonymous. It will include questions about your relationship to food, exercise and your body, as well as about emotional and physical symptoms. The form is completed anonymously. Based on the results of your screening and your discussion with the health professional, you may be referred for a complete evaluation and provided with a list of clinicians or facilities in your area.
