"Raising awareness about eating disorders"
This piece ran during National Eating Disorders Awareness (NEDA) Week, with the article noting eating disorders don't discriminate based on age or gender, and can be treated through therapy and work. The written portion of the page is brief since this is primarily a video segment, so the fuller context of Dianna's contribution is likely in the on-air clip itself rather than the text.

"Eating disorders not just an issue for women" (by Kristina Wells)
This feature told the story of a young man's decade-long recovery journey from an eating disorder, highlighting how eating disorders affect men as well as women — a population often overlooked in treatment and research. Dianna, then a social worker at Occupations Inc., was credited as playing a key role in his recovery, having worked alongside his doctors to build a treatment plan that finally helped him heal. The piece also included expert commentary from Dianna on how eating disorders function similarly in men and women, despite men being significantly underrepresented in treatment. Times Herald-Record
