EDF is the only completely free and non-clinical resource in Colorado—and one of very few nationally—that is accessible to everyone, regardless of income, insurance, health status, weight, diagnosis, race, gender, or sexual identity. Our services are free, confidential, and operate on a walk-in basis (with the exception of some workshops and events where space is limited; these require RSVPs). EDF is not a treatment center; instead EDF offers no-cost support, education, and advocacy programs within the community. EDF provides help to people who seek information and support prior to, or after making the decision to seek treatment, as well as to those who do not have access to formal care. EDF aims to supplement treatment with no-cost support and to improve access to care by collaborating with other organizations and by providing appropriate referrals. The Eating Disorder Foundation provides invaluable assistance through education, support, and advocacy initiatives to several groups – people with eating disorders, family members, friends, school personnel, parents and caregivers, healthcare providers, and the larger community.
