Community Resources
The Recovery Project Foundation
The Recovery Project Foundation advocates for mental health by helping to defray medical expenses for treatments of eating disorders in Canada, to individuals who have demonstrated a need for financial assistance.
Eating Disorder Support Network of Alberta (EDSNA)
The Eating Disorder Support Network of Alberta (EDSNA) is dedicated to providing meaningful support to those affected– directly and indirectly– by eating disorders.
EDSNA provides information, guidance, a provincial voice, a community hub, and most of all, support.
They offer professionally-facilitated support groups in Edmonton, Calgary and online at a very low cost and can even waive fees if people are experiencing financial difficulty.
EDSNA also promotes awareness about eating disorders.
National Eating Disorder Information Center (NEDIC)
NEDIC provides information, resources, referrals and support to Canadians affected by eating disorders.
Silver Linings Foundation
Silver Linings Foundation has been working collaboratively since 2014 to bridge gaps in the care of eating disorders in Alberta. We offer virtual support groups, peer support workers, therapist information and educational resources for youth, parents and health professionals. The foundation’s large vision is to create a live-in treatment facility for Alberta.
