EPIC Conversations Eating Disorders with the Butterfly Foundation

Butterfly Foundation hold regular virtual support chats for carers and those in recovery.

EPIC Walks as the meetings, are inclusive spaces for parents and carers of young people who are or have been school attendance challenges. Many EPIC members have travelled this path with their young person and are willing to share their hindsight and information.

EPIC Parent Program provides connection with other parents and carers of young people who are facing challenges and/or choosing risky behaviour. The EPIC Parent Program is a 5 session program that builds understanding, knowledge and confidence to better support your young person, your family and yourself. EPIC is aware of the isolation and powerlessness parents/carers experience when their teens are facing challenges. The program is peer led and offers connection, hindsight and confidence in supporting yourself and your young person.
