The NEDA Toolkits Story
The Toolkit Concept
The NEDA Toolkits tie together existing information with the development of new materials to help in the search for information, help, and yes, hope. They are intended for guidance, not for standards of care and are based on information available at the time of development. The ECRI Institute, a recognized expert in providing publications, information and consulting services internationally for healthcare assessments were the original consultants on the project. Their ability to translate work on behalf of the eating disorders community into useful, real world tools established an excellent partnership for helping to create the content of the toolkits. As with all our materials, we want to increase our outreach to constituents while providing reliable information to consumers in the general public about the unique and complex nature of eating disorders.We fully recognize that not all the information within each toolkit will be able to address the diversity and the nuances of many unique circumstances. Our intent is to provide basic information concerning eating disorders relevent to each audience with resources for further search.
Content Review
Our goal is to maintain the usefulness of the toolkits by reviewing and revising each at two-year intervals and including the most up-to-date research and information. NEDA’s Clinical and Scientific Advisory Council members will be primary reviewers, along with others invited by NEDA, including members of professional organizations that will be disseminating the toolkits. There will be a termination date for each to be determined by the CSAC.
We are currently seeking funding for the ongoing development of toolkits, as well as distribution and marketing. If you or anyone you know may be interested in contributing to, sponsoring or providing a grant to support these efforts, please be sure to contact our Development Office at 206-382-3587, ext. 15; development@myneda.org.
We hope you’ll find these toolkits useful and will share this resource with others.
