Financial Assistance

The purpose of the financial assistance program is to meet the great financial need people face in gaining access to appropriate treatment for eating disorders. Eating disorders impact people across all financial levels and ages.

Eating disorder treatment requires a team of professionals: therapists, nutritionists, and physicians. Living Bread helps to meet the financial cost of each of these areas, as well as any individual gaps to someone’s care. However, except for extraordinary circumstances, we require that the person seeking help pays at least a portion of their fee because of the importance of that person investing in their own care.  (Read more about Financial Assistance.)

Prayer Ministry & Mentorship

(Currently we are unable to provide our prayer ministry due to COVID, but if you would like to share your prayer requests and praises our prayer team will pray for your specific needs.)

Living Bread offers prayer appointments to anyone in the community impacted by the devastation of eating disorders including those who struggle with an eating disorder and the family and friends who desire their loved one’s recovery. Our prayer ministers are trained specifically in praying with those struggling with eating disorders. Prayer appointments are a beneficial addition to counseling, but are not in place of therapy with a licensed professional.

Living Bread’s mentorship program is an opportunity for Christian mentors to reach out to those isolated by eating disorders. Mentors are people who believe in the importance of relationships in which individuals compassionately support one another. The mentor’s role is to provide emotional support in the context of friendship, not counseling or accountability. Participants are encouraged to develop a natural friendship rather than thinking of mentoring as a step by step program. Mentors and mentees participating in this program spend at least one hour each week together for a period of three months. The mentors and mentees decide together how to spend their time. Examples might include meeting at a coffee shop or walking in a park.
