Also, just a reminder that we do not give out chargers to students who need to charge their iPads during the day. You may leave your iPad in the LTC to charge and come back for it later. We do not replace chargers. A working charger was given to you and it is your responsibility to maintain and/or replace as needed.
The goal of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week is to put the spotlight on the seriousness of eating disorders and to improve public understanding of their causes and treatments. By increasing awareness and access to resources, we can encourage early detection and intervention, which can improve the likelihood of full recovery for millions.
