Mission
Statement
The Mission of Hope Network is to provide access to resources, hope and healing to all families affected by eating disorders through: education, coaching, writing and speaking. Creating informed healthy families leading loved ones to full recovery as they navigate the crisis of an eating disorder with Joy and Peace and Hope.
Our purpose is to educate and support families coping with the impact of an eating disorder. We offer resources (local and national), group and individual coaching both in person and via phone, speaking on: body image, eating disorders awareness and prevetion and an opportunity for people to develop their own support networks.
Who are We?
HOPE Network is a collaboration of
educators and other coaches and health professionals who share a passion for helping families cope with the
impact of eating disorders. We believe that it is impossible to stand
by and do nothing when one in every three people affected with an
eating disorder will die as a direct result.
Anchored in our belief that anyone
can find joy (or at least sanity) in any circumstance, we've developed
a series of workshops to educate and assist families coping with eating
disorders.

No
One should face
an eating disorder alone.
No
One should cope
alone with the chaos, confusion
and isolation that comes
with the challenge
of a child with an eating disorder.
Through education and support it is possible
to find sanity, fun and even joy in everyday family life.
We understand.
We've been there.
This is the philosophy
that drives HOPE Network, to offer education,
support and resources
for families coping with eating disorders.
