Join TEAM NORMAL™ walkers and runners* and support the NORMAL IN SCHOOLS national charity which teaches families about the devastating impact of eating disorders and underlying issues like self esteem, family communication and wellness.
By bringing an award-winning rock 'n' roll musical theatre program, curriculum, and experts in the field of eating disorders to schools all around the country, families are able to talk about stress management, body image, self esteem, eating disorders and addictions and begin healing. The NIS program has proven to get families into the treatment they need.
TEAM NORMAL™ funds go directly toward bringing the award-winning NIS program and curriculum to high schools, junior high schools, colleges, universities, medical and educational conferences around the country.
“NOR•MAL went so much further than the typical production. It truly transformed a majority of the school for a period of time. Classroom teachers, student support personnel, administrators, health professionals, theater professionals, parents, and a large number of our students came together not only around a top-notch production and show, but also to support each other while learning more about ourselves through the very real issues of eating disorders and family dysfunction that many of our youth face.
From a building administrator's point of view, this is what educational theater should be all about: great performances and music and a chance for more of the school to become involved in the production -- all through real-life content that challenges and educates both the actors and the audience.”
~Steve Lodes, Principal at Greendale High School
*NORMAL In Schools™ and TEAM NORMAL™ does not promote long distance running or walking for individuals who are currently suffering from eating disorders. This activity is recommended for those who are at a healthy, normal weight, are not dieting, and who have appropriately trained for this event. |
