When Recovery Overlaps: Supporting Co-Occurring Eating Disorders, Mental Health, and Substance Use as a Peer

Room: Garnet Room

Presented by: Allison Herrst – CPRC

This workshop explores how disordered eating and food-related behaviors may show up across mental health and substance use recovery from a peer-led, lived-experience perspective. Participants will gain tools to recognize warning signs, respond without shame or diagnosis, stay grounded in the peer role, and use trauma-informed, recovery-oriented language.
