Who We Are
F.E.A.S.T = Families Empowered and Supporting the Treatment of Eating Disorders
We are a global non-profit organization, serving thousands of families of people affected by eating disorders from over 100 different countries throughout the world. Our free programs and services offer these families much needed support, information, skills, resources, and tools to help them on their journey. F.E.A.S.T. is about parents helping parents, about paying it forward, and about being there for families at a time when they need us the most.
What We Do
The mission of F.E.A.S.T. is to walk alongside families as they battle their loved one's eating disorder, providing transformative support, education, empowerment, and community through a multitude of programs and services. Our goals include improving outcomes, shortening the duration of illness, and reducing isolation and suffering.
When It All Began
F.E.A.S.T. started back in 2007, when we became a recognized nonprofit. In April of 2009, our organization successfully achieved 501(c)(3) nonprofit status from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a designation that is recognized internationally as an indication of legitimate management and practice.
What We Believe
F.E.A.S.T. is the only global community focused on empowering parents as caregivers and promoting evidence-based treatment of eating disorders. We are inclusive of many kinds of families with a wide range of experiences, and we are strong believers in family involvement in treatment.
