The Association for Size Diversity and Health https://asdah.org/
We wanted to create a space for physicians and other healthcare providers who want to provide weight-inclusive or weight-neutral care to network, share ideas and strategies to overcome barriers, and to create a community of like-minded folks.
So we did!
We are physicians committed to the principles of Health at Every Size as described here by the Association for Size Diversity and Health:
Respectful Care
Weight Inclusivity
Eating for Wellbeing
Life-Enhancing Movement
and Health Enhancement.
We also want to advance this mission/approach with fellow physicians and healthcare providers by creating a space to discuss challenges and disrupt anti-fat bias, creating an accountable community dedicated to self-learning and inclusive care.
