Our leadership team is comprised of a small group of dedicated and passionate individuals committed to developing a strong network of entities which will support our mission shared above. These team members will focus on identifying / developing resources for families of a loved one struggling with an eating disorder. (As these clients may also have a substance use disorder and/or other mental health issue, we'll highlight these types of resources as well). Our meetings will take place each April (Cape Cod) and October (Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket), and on occasion be followed by a training and/or networking event.

Stacy Hostetter, MSN, RN, FNP-BC

Family Nurse Practitioner, Department of Medicine, Falmouth Hospital

For over 20 years, Stacy Hostetter has worked as a nurse at top ranked hospitals, including Boston Children’s Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and the Cleveland Clinic. Upon moving to the Cape, she became an Acute Care Nurse Practitioner in the Department of Medicine at Falmouth Hospital. Stacy holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Georgetown University, and a Master’s from Case Western Reserve University. Her interest in Eating Disorders began when her (then) 11-year daughter developed Anorexia Nervosa.  As she navigated the mental health system, she quickly realized that there is a lack of resources on Cape Cod for adolescents and adults with eating disorders.  To address this critical need, she became a founding member of this network, where she will guide families seeking treatment options.  Stacy also currently co-leads a support group for parents of children with mental illness.
