Meal Support Program

The Meal Support Program in Kankakee, IL, provides free and accessible meal support designed specifically for individuals over 16 who are engaging in outpatient care for eating disorders. Our program offers virtual drop-in group meals facilitated by knowledgeable nutrition practitioners, creating a welcoming environment for individuals at various stages of their recovery journey. With four meal support sessions offered daily—two for lunch and two for dinner—participants can join as often as their schedules allow. Each session fosters a safe space where eating becomes a collective and supportive experience. While this program is focused on nutritional support rather than crisis intervention, we encourage anyone in need of urgent help to reach out to crisis resources when necessary.
