Questioning was applied as the research method. Controlled interviews represented the data collection technique. The target group to be researched were non-profit organizations from all over the Czech Republic that deal with the prevention of eating disorders. Two non-profit organizations agreed to participate in the research project. The research project ran from March to June 2011. Research results showed that there are not enough non-profit organizations in the Czech Republic that specialize in the topic under review. Furthermore, research established that Anabell, an unincorporated organization with several branches, holds a leading position in the Czech Republic. Research results also proved that non-profit organizations do not run enough prevention programs and that the public education programs that they run in the Czech Republic are insufficient. This Bachelor?s Thesis may inspire the creation of a wider range of prevention programs and also the spreading of the network of non-profit organizations in the Czech Republic. It may also serve as a source of information for parents and schools where eating disorders are concerned.
