Treatment at The Renfrew Center of New York City was life-changing. Renfrew taught me that you deserve treatment and nourishment no matter your body size. Renfrew gave me a community when I was isolated, and strength through the tough days. Renfrew taught me I could let go of my traumas and live life again, that I wasn’t alone, and that there is always hope. Thank you, Renfrew.
