Mission
Breaking the Chains ("BTC") is a unified global non-profit foundation using art as the process to unmask the stigma of individuals affected by eating disorders. Creative genres like film, painting, poetry, music and dance will inspire the global community to use art as an outlet for the darkness that lies dormant.
