Carolina Resource Center for Eating Disorders (CRC for ED) is the only nonprofit in NC providing education, resources, and support to individuals, families, and professionals concerned with disordered eating and recovery from eating disorders. Programming includes professional development and community outreach, resource and referral services through a helpline and treatment directory, weekly virtual support group, and independent clinical assessments for individuals with financial hardship and insurance barriers. CRC for ED is a small organization doing the work of much larger nonprofits with local, regional, and national reach. All services are provided at no cost and are made possible through the generosity of private donors.
Carolina Resource Center for Eating Disorders’ services and advocacy depends on personal contributions and sponsorships because eating disorders nonprofits are not generally awarded grant funding. For those interested in supporting our work please click here.
