The Emily Program is a Minnesota-based treatment program for people with eating disorders. The Program announced on Monday that it is partnering with the Anna Westin House - the only eating disorders residential treatment center in Minnesota. The Emily Program will take over management of the house, which offers long-term treatment in a home-like setting.

"'The Emily Program is truly a leader when it comes to developing and implementing programs for individuals with all types of eating disorders," said Kitty Westin, Anna Westin's mother and the co-founder of the Anna Westin Foundation.
