HOPE Team
The HOPE (Help Overcome Problems with Eating and Exercise) Team
is a multidisciplinary team approach for students with disordered

provide students that are suffering from eating and exercise disorders
with an on-campus resource to give them what they need in terms of
education, evaluation, and eventual recovery. The team is made up of
