N.A.M.E.D.

The National Association for Males with Eating Disorders (N.A.M.E.D.)

A 501(c)(3) charitable organization.

Mission: To provide support to males with eating disorders in recovery and their families and to be a resource of information on the subject.

About: N.A.M.E.D. was established as a non-profit in 2006 to fill the gap in a lack of resources and support to males with eating disorders, who have been underrepresented and under served as an eating disorder population.  It is N.A.M.E.D.’s vision to be a source of support, a central place for the sharing of information on this subject, a resource for information on this issue, and actively involved in projects to prevent and educate about eating disorders in males.

Services: Website at www.NAMEDinc.org, Toll-Free Helpline at 1-877-780-0080, online support group discussion forums for both males with eating disorders and concerned others, phone and e-mail support, a Student Outreach Program, and a Speakers Bureau.
