Project Description:

The Body Positive’s mission is to foster positive change in the world by unleashing the energy, intelligence, and passion women and girls currently direct toward self-hatred and obsession with weight and image. Since 1996, The Body Positive has offered innovative educational materials and workshops to teach people the common sense tools and creative strategies necessary to become free from body hatred and self-destructive eating and exercise behaviors, freeing them to live joyfully and healthfully in their bodies. The BodyTalk DVD series for youth has been distributed worldwide, and viewed by more than a million children and teens. Using the BodyAloud! guidebook, more than one thousand schools nationwide have developed youth-led body image programs based on The Body Positive’s youth leadership model. Most recently, the organization has created its first DVD for adult women, Sustaining Your Perfect Weight, to introduce the Intuitive Health™ Model for healthy, vibrant living. The Body Positive consults with high schools, universities, and corporations to create “body positive” environments, where genetic diversity in human shapes and sizes is honored and valued, and the focus is on real health and expression of purpose and passion.
