Abstract
Eating disorders are a serious concern affecting adolescents due to their significant impact on physical health, emotional well-being, and cognitive functioning. Signs of these conditions often emerge during adolescence, and without early intervention, symptoms may persist or worsen into young adulthood. Early signs are often overlooked or misinterpreted by the adults most closely involved with adolescents. While families and school staff are well-positioned to notice changes in behavior, mood, or functioning, many lack accessible, practical information to recognize and respond effectively. This project aims to translate research into practical guidance through an informational booklet for school staff and families. The resource is designed to raise awareness, support early identification, and provide clear guidance for responding to concerns.
