About

BodyKind Vail was founded on lived experience, born from the recognition of what it feels like to struggle with an eating disorder and have nowhere to turn. The organization grew out of real need: community, compassion, and spaces where open, honest conversations about food, body image, and mental health can exist without shame.

What began as a small education event featuring a guest speaker from the Eating Recovery Center quickly revealed a deeper need for safe, understanding support. BodyKind Vail was created to meet that need and build a community rooted in compassion and connection.
