TO RECOGNIZE EATING DISORDER ACTION WEEK AS A TIME TO RAISE AWARENESS, PROMOTE EDUCATION, AND ENCOURAGE EARLY INTERVENTION AND TREATMENT FOR EATING DISORDERS.

HR 1051 is a symbolic resolution recognizing "Eating Disorder Action Week" to raise public awareness, promote education, and encourage early intervention and treatment for eating disorders. It specifically cites Arkansas hospital data from 2021 (516 inpatient admissions and 140 ER visits for eating disorders) as context for the recognition. The bill does not create new programs, allocate funding, or impose legal requirements - it serves solely as a formal acknowledgment by the Arkansas legislature. This procedural resolution was passed unanimously in the House on February 27, 2025, with an amendment adding the state-specific statistics.
