    Dear AED colleagues,

    My name is Olivia, and I'm a PhD Candidate conducting a qualitative study titled "Strength in Support: A Qualitative Exploration of Key People Within Athletes' Networks During Eating Disorder Recovery." I'm seeking to recruit individuals who have supported athletes during ED recovery and the reintegration into sport, and would be grateful for any support in my recruitment efforts.

    I am recruiting individuals who:
    1. have supported and/or worked directly with at least one athlete (e.g., as a coach, parent, psychologist, dietician) in ED or disordered eating recovery and who reintegrated into sport
    2. are 18+ years of age

    Participation involves a one-on-one interview, which can be done virtually, to discuss your experiences and perspectives on supporting athletes through recovery and the reintegration into sport. The interview will last 60-90 minutes, and you will receive a $20 CAD Amazon gift card in compensation for your time.

    If you are interested or know anyone who might be interested in participating, please contact me at olivia.feng@mail.mcgill.ca.

    Thank you!

    Sincerely,
    Olivia Feng
