Recovery Path Foundation (RPF) is a 501c3 non-profit organization pioneering the way we view, provide health care to, and support those seeking recovery from co-occurring eating disorders and substance addiction.



RPF will provide grants to qualified individuals to engage in a prescribed treatment plan, conduct research on the effectiveness of integrated screening and treatment, and collaborate with reputable mental health facilities, treatment centers and professionals; academic institutions; businesses; legislators; and community organizations to develop necessary educational programs that answer the questions: What does co-occurring mean? What are the signs? How do we eliminate the shame? How do we remove the barriers to healthcare? How can the community help?



“We plan to award our first grant in early 2005. That is why, in addition to other fundraising activities and partnerships, we are starting an intensive 30-40-50 campaign,” says Carol Wheeler, Director of Development for Recovery Path Foundation. “We are asking for (30) $5000, (40) $1000, and (50) $500 donations over the next couple of months. Because eating disorders and substance abuse affects all members of society, directly and indirectly, investing in the prevention and treatment of these diseases can save us millions in the costs of the consequences. We need to make sure everyone knows that it will take us all to make a difference.”



According to a 2001 study commissioned by the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation, the Schneider Institute for Health Policy at Brandeis University found that there is a significant population battling substances - 18 million people with alcohol, 6 million with drugs and more than 5 million people have an eating disorder. For every $1 spent on preventative treatment, society can save between $4-$15 on the consequences.



Recovery Path Foundation is headquartered in Tampa, FL, and is already gaining national interest and encouragement from professionals in the healthcare field.
