The training consists of

1) brief background about the unique clinical challenges of young people and their families with ARFID and its subtypes (sensory sensitivity, low-appetite, and fear of adverse consequences);

2) a summary of current research for treatments for children and adolescents with AFRID;

3) an overview of FBT-ARFID describing how the main principles of FBT are applied for this disorder (including developmental and co-morbidity challenges); and

4) case discussion of clinical cases of ARFID illustrating how FBT is implemented across the age and clinical subtypes.

The training is designed to facilitate interaction, engagement, and participation by those who attend. The training is based on Family-based Treatment for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder by the workshop trainer and published by Routledge in 2021.
