Anti-oppression statement

We support individuals and families to strengthen their wisdom and nourish themselves with compassion, care, and From the Heart. Our commitment to anti-oppression work includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  1. We strive to create a safe, inclusive, and accessible space for clients to receive care regardless of gender identity, body shape or size, sexual orientation, race, socio-economic status, and ability.

  2. We prioritize learning how to support clients and professionals from marginalized communities and unlearning the systems of white supremacy in healthcare.

  3. We acknowledge that the dietitian and healer community in Rhode Island  is dominated by people with proximity to privilege. At From the Heart Nutrition Counseling, Inc. we are actively working to amplify the voices of the marginalized and those with underrepresented identities.

  4. We are committed to investing in anti-racism practices, anti-diet systems, and organizations that challenge the status quo.

  5. We believe in bodily autonomy, informed consent, collaborative client care, eating disorder prevention and healing.

  6. We aim to provide equitable care, which includes accepting major insurances, and a selection of pro bono & sliding scale offerings to clients from oppressed groups. Please inquire about availability if you or someone you know is looking for support.

We greatly value feedback, being held accountable to our actions, and community change.
