Founder story
In 2019, Kristina Saffran and Dr. Erin Parks
founded Equip, with a dream of making sure that
everyone had access to evidence-based treatment
for eating disorders. But 2019 was hardly the
beginning of their dream. Both founders were
diagnosed with eating disorders as children and
were fortunate to have parents who brought them
to recovery using the techniques of Family Based
Treatment (FBT). Kristina went on to become a
philanthropic leader, founding Project HEAL,
providing hundreds of thousands of dollars in
eating disorder treatment grants to people
without financial access. Erin got her doctorate
in Clinical Psychology and had a career in
academic medicine, delivering evidence-based
treatment to patients with eating disorders from
around the world. After spending a collective 20
years in the field, Kristina and Erin had heard
from thousands of families that they needed help
getting diagnosed, finding multi-disciplinary
specialists, affording treatment, and achieving
and maintaining recovery. In 2019, Kristina and
Erin built what families wanted and needed Equip.
