The mission of The Kirsten Haglund Foundation is to provide hope, networking, and financial aid to those seeking treatment and freedom from eating disorders.

Eating disorders affect more than 10 million people across the United States; they do not discriminate, and they affect the health of the mind, the body, and the soul. Now, those who have struggled with them, their families and friends, and activists all over the world are standing up to proclaim what eating disorders CANNOT do: they cannot kill dreams, or shatter hope, or defy love.

The Kirsten Haglund Foundation continues the work that Kirsten began as Miss America 2008 – raising awareness of this illness – while also providing resources and scholarships for those seeking treatment. We all have the right and the responsibility to define beauty on our own terms, to love and respect ourselves and our bodies. With complete recovery from eating disorders comes this peace. It is real, it is beautiful, and it IS possible. Now, love your body and rock the world!
