Feeding Tube Awareness Week Meet People Leading Active Lives

The overall objective of Feeding Tube Awareness Week is to help raise awareness of enteral/tube feeding as a positive and often life-saving medical intervention for those who are unable to eat and drink enough on their own to sustain life and thrive (and in the case of children, grow and develop).

Moreover, Feeding Tube Awareness Foundation hopes to break down the social stigma that is currently attached to tube feeding by:

• Highlighting the positive outcomes associated with tube feeding
• Giving more information about the reasons people require tube feeding
• Countering stereotypes and misinformation about tube feeding

Feeding Tube Awareness Foundation is raising awareness of tube feeding through Feeding Tube Awareness Week
