Share your aspirations for transformational healing here
Welcome, we’re so glad you’ve found your way here. The Life Beyond Addiction Foundation exists for you—for the brave, the open-hearted, and those ready to step deeper into healing.
Dear Seeker,
Welcome—we’re so glad you’ve found your way here.
The Life Beyond Addiction Foundation exists to support individuals in recovery who are ready to step more deeply into healing and transformation.
We know the path of recovery can be both sacred and challenging. Too often, the programs, retreats, or trainings that can create meaningful change feel financially out of reach. LBAF helps bridge that gap by providing financial support so individuals can access trusted recovery and healing experiences around the world.
If you are seeking assistance for a workshop, retreat, training, or other transformational program, we invite you to apply. Every application is reviewed with care, respect, and confidentiality. Please answer the questions as fully and honestly as you can—this helps us understand your journey and how we may be able to support you.
If selected to receive financial assistance, please know that, in accordance with state and federal nonprofit guidelines, your name, the amount granted, and the program or organization receiving the funds will be publicly disclosed in the spirit of transparency and responsible stewardship.
We believe your healing matters—not only for you, but for the greater good. Thank you for your courage and your willingness to grow. We are honored to walk alongside you. With respect and hope,
The Life Beyond Addiction Foundation
Before You Begin Your Application
Important Note:
For Recovery 2.0 destination retreat programs, applicants must first complete the Recovery 2.0 application process before applying for a scholarship through the Life Beyond Addiction Foundation.
Application Convenience:
For your convenience, any information you enter is securely saved as you progress through the application. This allows you to pause and return later to complete it at your own pace.
Funding Scope & Shared Commitment At this early stage of our foundation’s growth, we currently offer partial financial support for approved recovery experiences. Travel expenses are not included at this time.
We view scholarships as a partnership. We invite applicants to request the portion of program costs they truly need support with, while contributing what they can themselves. This shared commitment helps us extend opportunities to more people and honors the investment each individual brings to their own healing journey.
