Manna Treatment is a program under the nonprofit organization, Manna Scholarship Fund. Manna Treatment is a psychotherapy practice located in Gwinnett County, northeast of Atlanta. Manna Treatment offers three levels of care: Outpatient that encompasses most mental health issues (e.g., depression, anxiety, grief, and family issues), and provides higher-level treatment programs (IOP, PHP) that specialize in trauma, eating disorders and adolescent mental health.

Eating disorder treatments include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder for all ages and genders. We have created well-planned and effective treatment programs for those who need Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP).

Manna provides additional IOP treatment for:

• Trauma-Recovery for Women - a 13-week program that focuses on providing coping skills, but will also address common issues that emerge as a result of PTSD, dissociation, and other issues related to trauma.
• Adolescent Mental Health - for common issues that may have reached new levels for both families and teens (anxiety, depression, trauma, and the like). Teens who are struggling with coping with most daily issues (school relationships, family) that may engage in unhelpful coping (suicidal thoughts or actions, cutting, self-injury, sexual acting out) are best for this program.
• Family Coping - for all families of individuals who are in any of our other programs, you may find more intensive support to cope with the changes you are going through.
• PTSD Recovery for Vets and First Responders - this program will roll out in early summer, 2025. This will provide support for those who have risked everything and still struggle with some of the aftermath of their service.

Manna utilizes principles based on the Bible in the therapeutic process. We strive to be a safe environment where individuals struggling can process their feelings, learn new ways of coping and facilitate change. Our therapeutic approach is to show others how we believe that Jesus treated people, not through force or lectures.

In the Bible, "Manna" literally means "What is it?" It was in reference to the food supplied by God to the Israelite's when they were in the desert for forty years.

He rained down manna for the people to eat, he gave them the grain of heaven. Psalm 78.24

God knew what the people needed, how much they needed and provided. At Manna Treatment, that is what we believe about how food is to be used. It is from God, for us and is made to meet our needs. In the New Testament, Jesus becomes the "Manna" - "For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." John 6:33

Therefore, Manna Treatment was designed to replace the "addictive process" of eating disorders with the true Manna, which is Christ himself.

In order to expand our scope of services and provide additional resources for individuals within the community, Manna Treatment has come under the umbrella of our nonprofit, Manna Fund.

Manna Fund's mission is:

To provide mental health treatment for those with eating disorders at the Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, and Outpatient levels of care, utilizing multiple sources of revenue, for as long as the client needs such treatment.  Manna Treatment desires to support the client from surviving to thriving to leading.
