We are researchers from the Queensland Centre for Mental Health Research (QCMHR). Queensland Health has asked us to evaluate the Child and Youth Mental Health Eating Disorders Program. Our aim is to understand if and how the Eating Disorders Program works. To do that, we will talk to different people. This includes people who were referred but did not attend; those who did receive treatment, their family members, Eating Disorders Program staff and people who helped develop it.
