Manna Fund is a 501c(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing hope and financial assistance to individuals who need eating disorder treatment scholarships. Manna provides funding for inpatient, residential, Partial Hospitalization, and Intensive Outpatient eating disorder treatment for individuals lacking insurance coverage or for those with inadequate insurance coverage. Manna Fund grants scholarships to recipients by providing direct payment to partnering eating disorder treatment facilities.
To address the epidemic of eating disorders and the underlying trauma by providing education, research, and financial assistance for treatment to all qualified individuals through well-administered programs.These programs include care at these levels: outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and residential care.
Manna Treatment is a CARF accredited organization. The Committee on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is an international organization that supports therapeutic agencies in reaching excellence in care. Manna Treatment was originally accredited in 2017 and was re-accreditation for three more years on April 8-9, 2021. IF you would like more information on this process, please see the "CARF Corner" on our Manna Treatment page.
Manna Treatment is an Atlanta-based treatment program that provides services at the Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, and Outpatient levels of care. Although we specialize in eating disorders and trauma recovery, we also provide treatment for most other issues. Other issues that we treat:
- anxiety
- depression
- family of origin issues
- mood disorders
- psychiatric evaluations
- medication management
- sensory integration disorders
Our Eating Disorder PHP-IOP programs are open to females and males who are 12 and up. We are also willing to do a children's program when we have enough children for the program.
Family IOP is for parents and other family members who have a family member who is dealing with an eating disorder. This program is 3 days/week, 3 hours/day from 4pm-7pm Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. This program is open to anyone, whether your loved one is in Manna's programs or other programs. The preliminary research on this program is that family members who engage in this program generally see a reduction of the client's time spent in IOP or PHP programs by a month.
Our Trauma Recovery IOP is for women 18 and over and is a 12-week repetitive program. Our 12 themes support you from learning how to trust to forgiveness and other issues in between.
Manna is a Christian-based organization. Like Jesus, we accept all individuals who have differing faiths to participate in our programs. We do not force our Christian beliefs on others and we are also willing to share our relationship with Jesus with you if you want to understand it better. We believe that giving you a different treatment process is a much better way to introduce you to Christianity versus forcing any discussion or requirement to believe as we do.
We are all about love, acceptance, and safety in recovery.
We are also currently accepting applications and providing treatment at our local IOP/PHP program in Northeast Atlanta. Those who are interested in this program should contact us at (770) 495-9775.

Not Currently Offering Residential Treatment Scholarships
We are excited to announce that Manna Scholarship Fund, Inc is ready to accept your applications for residential and inpatient treatment!
Manna is currently seeking a home on commercial property to create a recovery residence for clients who need PHP & IOP for eating disorders and trauma recovery.
We feel that this is a necessary step in treatment - to provide a safe environment that is close to our treatment site.
If you or someone would like to donate, please email us: application@mannatreatment.com and we will follow up with them.
The funding needs for inpatient treatment for Eating Disorder (ED) patients is not diminishing. Recent statistics show that 26 Million women and men suffer from eating disorders (Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder), and that some 500,000 teenagers (age 13-18) have some form of an eating disorder, and do not receive any form of treatment.
Because many hospitals charge $1,000-$2000 per day, not including physician's fees, we decided to be proactive and raise money for direct payment to such hospitals, on behalf of these individuals. In our clinical practice, we know of individuals who have up to $500,000+ in medical bills, and have taken 2nd and 3rd mortgages on their homes to fund their treatment.

BECOME A PARTNER
Manna Fund strives to place our recipients in qualified treatment programs, and will continue to work with many of the programs listed as a part of the REDC. They have created standards for residential care, and Manna Fund also has a "credentialing process" by which we incorporate new treatment facilities into our network.
We are also incorporating a yearly re-credentialing process for each treatment center in order to ensure up-to-date information.
We are continuing to serve our clients in OP, IOP and PHP. We are using both virtual and in person avenues. We are practicing safe distancing, sanitizing, and quarantining when necessary. We have a policy that if a staff, client, or someone in the family/close proximity to the individual becomes sick or tests positively for COVID, we are having that individual quarantine for 10 days.
If a core staff at Manna becomes sick or tests positively, we will be quarantining that staff member for 2 weeks. All persons who have been previously infected will be required to produce a negative PCR test as well as a negative rapid test, which we can conduct in-house. We are committed to the physical and mental health of all of our clients and want to protect and safeguard against getting ill.

Most of our therapists are seeing clients in person at the center. However, we are continuing to provide telemental health for those who prefer it. Our telemental health platform is Zoom. We are subscribed to the Zoom platform that is HIPAA-compliant, which ensures your confidentiality during your therapy session.
If you have questions, please feel free to contact us at our office number: (770) 495-9775. Our admin team will be able to answer your questions as soon as is possible. It is also necessary to call and cancel appointments per the usual 48-hour cancellation policy. Again, because we are attempting to prevent issues by moving to virtual therapy sessions, we anticipate that you will be more inclined to keep your scheduled appointment.
Feel free to also email us at admin@mannatreatment.com if you have questions.
Thanks for your flexibility!
