Breaking the Cycle of Risk: Intervention for Mothers With Eating Disorders
Nurture is a collaborative pilot study for mothers of children under the age of 3 who have
suffered from disordered eating in the past. It is coordinated by the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University and Virginia Commonwealth University and sponsored
by the National Institute of Mental Health. Nurture hopes to promote confident parenting and
a positive meal times.
Mothers who have struggled with disordered eating or body image struggles are often
concerned how best to provide proper nutrition to their child and/or model healthy eating
behavior. We have developed a curriculum that provides information about how to establish
healthy eating patterns and social support for mothers with children under three years of
age. The curriculum will be delivered in a support group format led by co-therapists
affiliated with the UNC Eating Disorder Program.
