ANEB Québec

Created by Dr. Pierre Lechner, ANEB was founded in 1987 under the name of Fondation de l’anorexie mentale et de boulimie. Despite a predominantly medical approach, Dr. Lechner firmly believed in community-based treatment methods and in the creation of support groups to help people suffering from eating disorders. Consequently, many of his efforts were devoted to the development of a foundation that could offer complementary services in hospital settings.
