    Research Participants Needed 

    This study aims to understand better the unique treatment needs of African American women living with eating disorders from licensed mental health professionals' perspectives. In addition, the study aims to add new knowledge to otherwise limited current literature on the problem of eating disorders among African American women. 

    Are you a licensed mental health professional?   

    Are you over the age of 18? 

    Have you worked with African American women living with eating disorders for at least two years? 

    Suppose you answered yes to all three questions. In that case, you are invited to participate in an online survey to understand better the experiences of African American women living with eating disorders.  

    The online survey is going to take 5-10 minutes. If you are interested in participating in this study, please click on the following link:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2D6L7KR 

    There are no direct benefits for you to participate. Still, the information collected from this study will help provide more insight into the treatment of African women living with eating disorders.
