We are a coalition of professionals and food addicts working to win legitimacy and insurance coverage for food addiction treatment, similar to what’s available for alcoholism and other addictions.
We are also the world’s foremost clearinghouse for food addiction informed treatment options, nutritional guidance, and educators.
We also track research, maintain a blog, circulate a newsletter, and foster community.
If you'd like to help us, please read on for the several ways you can.
Make a financial donation
The food addiction institute relies heavily on contributions from individuals and institutions to sustain our work. As a legally chartered nonprofit organization, donations are fully tax-deductible in the US and in many other countries.
Personal stories are a powerful way for newcomers to connect with the idea of food addiction. If you don’t know where to start, consider one of these ideas:
What would you say to someone exploring whether they might be a Food Addict?
“I knew I was a Food Addict when …”
“Learning about food addiction changed my life by…”
“I had no idea [blank] would also change for the better.”
Please send your video for review to
videos@foodaddictioninstitute.org. If you would like to make a video but want help, you can use the same link.
For our newsletter, our blog, or both, we welcome written contributions from Food Addicts who have experienced recovery and from experts who study food addiction or related fields. If you want to reach the world’s foremost food addiction community, make a proposal.
We have a large tent and are eager to invite you in. If you have skills in fundraising, social media, marketing, graphic design, or technology, we would love your help. If you want to propose an initiative for the institute, make a pitch.
