BILL NUMBER:S2530A TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the public health law, in relation to establishing the eating disorders awareness and prevention program PURPOSE: To include eating disorders within the health care and wellness education and outreach program. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 of the bill amends subdivision 1 of section 207 of the public health law to add a new paragraph (j) to establish that the eating disorders awareness and prevention program shall be designed to promote the awareness of eating disorders and available services, as well as to prevent and reduce the incidence and prevalence of eating disorders, especially among children and adolescents. Section 2 of the bill provides for an immediate effective date. JUSTIFICATION: Alarmingly, in American high schools 30% of girls and 16% of boys suffer from disordered eating. Anorexia is the third most common chronic illness among adolescents. In fact it has the highest death rate of any mental illness with females between the ages of 15 and 24 dying 12 times more from their eating disorder than all other causes of death in that age-group.
