Butterfly prevention programs for professionals working with young people

Are you a community-based professional working with young people?

If so, you’ll appreciate that adolescence can be a particularly challenging time for young people, with periods of intense physical and emotional change. Young people’s vulnerability to a range of mental health issues increases during this time, leaving them exposed to body dissatisfaction, disordered eating and eating disorders.

Intervening early and helping young people have a healthy relationship with their bodies, eating and physical activity is crucial.

As trusted experts in the field of body image and eating disorders our goal is to enhance the capacity of all youth professionals to promote positive body image and healthy behaviours in the young people they work with and to respond quickly when more serious issues arise.

Body image continues to be one of the top 4 personal concerns of young Australians.
