We at Surrender School invite you to join our supportive community, where we help each other recover from our unhealthy relationships with food. We offer different approaches to working the 12 steps along with Zoom workshops and resources to broaden and strengthen recovery. You will find many ways to connect with us that nurture your healing in a safe, compassionate environment. Wherever you are in your recovery journey, we welcome you. You belong.

We at Surrender School also believe:
- Connection is the antidote to addiction.
- We all learn from each other. Whether we are a newcomer, many years recovered, in relapse—wherever we are on the recovery journey—we meet ourselves and each other with kindness. We all belong.
- There is no one right way to work a program.
- You must find what works for you.
- Every mistake—food mistake or otherwise—teaches us.
- Self-recrimination is never a path for growth. It does no good at all to beat ourselves up.
- Shame does not work.
