The overall goal is to provide you, and your support team, with the resources needed to aid in your mental health journey. This is done through periodic follow up phone calls/emails, community events, online resources and support groups.

Eating Recovery Center offers email communications from our Community Outreach Liaison Team, all of which highlight different resources including virtual support groups, upcoming events, blogs, Mental Note podcast and additional hands-on practical tools. This entire team is dedicated to working with both patients and their families, ensuring you continue to have supportive touchpoints after you discharge from treatment.

If I could pick one thing that Eating Recovery Center taught me, it would definitely be 'fearless.' You gave me the recovery tools to run after my problems, to catch them, and solve the issue. I am able to celebrate my body with kindness and passion. Thank you, Eating Recovery Center for not only saving my life but, for giving me a full life of gratitude. Thank you!
