What is Heath at Every Size?
Health at Every Size™ (HAES) is a set of principles and a framework of care created to guide health access inclusive of all people, including people at the largest size of body spectrum. This is about larger bodies deserving of healthcare without conditions, being forced into intentional weight loss, or assuming a narrow, individualized definition of health.
We uphold principles that you have body autonomy to make the choices for your needs.
We understand the harmful effects of anti-fatness and weight stigma on mental health and physical being.
Most importantly, we deeply believe that you deserve care and dignity in accessing health care.
Recognising that the push of diet culture to cycles of restriction and/or binging causes harm and gets in the way of a holistic body trust
We view health as a complex sociopolitical concept that is influenced by many factors, including oppressive systems.
