On May 21, Linden Oaks Behavioral Health hosted the 15th annual Candlelight Vigil for those affected by eating disorders.

The event, with this year’s theme of “Weaving the Tapestry of Recovery,” is held to motivate and encourage recovery, provide support for families, commemorate those who have lost their lives and recognize those who have recovered and survived.

The Linden Oaks Eating Disorders Program, designated a Center of Excellence by The Joint Commission, offers four levels of care with the latest techniques designed to help adults and adolescents recover from anorexia, bulimia and other eating disorders.
