Health at Every Size® Professional Listing Project
One of the biggest barriers for fat people and people of all sizes is navigating traditionally fatphobic settings such as healthcare, education & advocacy, and fitness spaces. We’re redesigning our listing of professionals to be easier to use and better meet the needs of our community, and to center those in our community who have been historically and are currently marginalized such as Black people, trans people, and superfat and larger people.
We are planning a multi-phase rollout with each phase informed by what we learn in the prior phases. We will have multiple opportunities for feedback as we learn more and create early prototypes of the listing.
Our first phase is to gather feedback from our community, both people who plan to be listed, those who plan to use the listing, and those who fall into both categories. We want to hear from as many people as possible, especially Black, Indigenous, and People of the Color, trans folks, and superfat and larger folks.
We know many people in our communities fall into both categories (list user and professional), so you are welcome to provide your feedback on either or both surveys.
Surveys will be open until February 6, 2022 at 11:59pm PT.
