Join us at the "What to Say" Luncheon

Athletes have a statistically greater chance of developing an eating disorder than the non-athlete population. Let’s make sure youth sports coaches have simple tools to positively impact the body images and self-esteem of the young athletes they mentor.

WithAll’s What to Say initiative provides adults with simple tools about how to talk to children about food and body. Join us for lunch as we kick off the “What to Say” initiative with a conversation and Q&A focused on youth sports coaches.

WCCO TV’s Jennifer Mayerle will host this meaningful discussion with former Minnesota Viking Chad Greenway, Borton Partners CEO/Former University of Minnesota Coach Pam Borton and WithAll’s Executive Director Lisa Radzak.

WHEN: Thursday, March 14

TIME: Noon -1:00 PM

WHERE: The Depot, 225 3rd Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55401

WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Parents, coaches, teachers, health care providers, etc. In other words, any adult directly influencing a child’s development.

TICKETS: Tickets are $25 per person and include lunch.
