Cleveland Center for Eating Disorders to Partner with The Emily Program


CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio --(Business Wire)--

The Emily Program, a nationally recognized eating disorder treatment program and Cleveland Center for Eating Disorders, the premier eating disorder program in Northeast Ohio, are joining together to provide increased services for people with eating disorders in Ohio. The collaboration between the two programs will result in expanded outpatient services and a 16-bed residential treatment facility for adult males and females. The first of its kind in Northeast Ohio, this facility will provide more treatment options to those struggling with an eating disorder.

Mark Warren and Lucene Wisniewski, founders of CCED, will continue to lead the Cleveland programming and provide the same level of highly individualized and expert care, at all levels of treatment, for both adolescents and adults.

"We are extremely proud of our organization and the people in it," said Warren. "We know partnering with The Emily Program will enable us to provide an even greater array of services to an even broader population here in Ohio. We are excited to partner with them and especially look forward to the opening of the first residential program here in Clevland Heights."



"We have known Mark and Lucene for many years and have always had the utmost respect for each of them, both as professionals and as friends," said Dirk Miller, Founder and Executive Director of The Emily Program. "Mark and Lucene share our passion and commitment to providing the best care to the many who struggle with eating disorders. Their practice was built on providing access to care in their own community, a philosophy upon which we have built The Emily Program - first in Minnesota, then in Washington. We are extremely grateful for this partnership."
