Millions of people live in silent pain — trapped by distorted self-images, dangerous eating habits, and overwhelming shame. At The Mirror Project, we believe that recovery is possible, stigma is reversible, and every body deserves respect and care.

Our ultimate mission is to raise awareness about eating disorders and body dysmorphia and to support healthy recovery through education, advocacy, and community-based healing. We don’t just fight the symptoms, we address the roots like social media perfectionism, toxic fitness culture, family shame cycles, and racialized and gendered beauty norms. We’re here to break the mirror that reflects a distorted world — and build something more honest, human, and healing.

We bring light to the realities of eating disorders and body dysmorphia through storytelling, campaigns, and education that challenge cultural beauty standards.

We equip individuals, families, schools, and communities with the knowledge to recognize, prevent, and address disordered eating and body image issues early on.

Healing isn’t linear — and no one should go through it alone. Our peer groups, mentorship programs, and creative outlets offer safe spaces for reflection and recovery.

Eating disorders affect people of every race, gender, size, and background. Our work centers diverse voices and builds a culture of compassion, not comparison.
