About
Eating disorders are serious health conditions defined by ongoing disturbances in eating behaviors and a person’s thoughts or emotions related to food, eating, weight, or body image.
They can affect people of all ages, genders, body types, backgrounds, and abilities, including individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). They can also affect a person’s physical health, emotional well-being, and relationships.
Each person’s experience is different, and eating disorders cannot always be identified by a person’s appearance or body size. For people with IDD, eating challenges may also be influenced by sensory preferences, communication differences, medical conditions, medications, behavioral needs, or difficulty recognizing internal body cues. Careful assessment is essential to distinguish an eating disorder from other factors that may affect eating behaviors.
Our specialty is supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities who also experience eating disorders. Using a person-centered, interdisciplinary approach, we work alongside medical providers, behavioral health professionals, dietitians, caregivers, and support teams to develop individualized strategies that promote health, nutritional well-being, dignity, and quality of life. Supports are designed around each person's strengths, preferences, communication style, and goals, helping them participate as fully and safely as possible in everyday life. With compassionate, individualized support and appropriate care, people with eating disorders can work toward improved health, greater stability, and a more fulfilling quality of life.
At Redwood, every journey begins with the individual, not a diagnosis or label. Through our person-centered approach, we work closely with individuals, families, caregivers, and support teams to understand each person's unique strengths, goals, preferences, and needs. Together, we create personalized support plans that promote independence, meaningful relationships, community connection, and overall wellbeing.
Our services may include residential and home-based supports, day and community programs, employment and vocational services, community integration, behavioral services, crisis support, and care coordination. Delivered by compassionate, highly trained teams, these services are designed to help individuals live fulfilling, self-directed lives while remaining connected to the people and communities that matter most.

Every individual experiences life differently, and support needs often extend beyond a single diagnosis or condition.
