Advancing Hope, Research & Recovery for Neurodegenerative and Immunodegenerative Disease
Renewed Recovery Foundation transforms healthcare for the homeless, uninsured, and medically underserved – through charitable clinics, medical research, physician education, and artificial intelligence built for the people who need it most.
Brain & immune health
Research, prevention &
recovery – for every
community.
Who We Are
Dedicated to brain health, immune health, and human recovery.
The Renewed Recovery Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals affected by neurodegenerative disorders, immunodegenerative conditions, addiction-related neurologic disease, chronic inflammation, and complex chronic illnesses.
Our mission is to advance education, research, prevention, recovery, and supportive care for individuals and families facing some of the most challenging diseases of aging, inflammation, immune dysfunction, and neurologic decline.

Four Pillars
Four connected pillars, one mission.
01
Charitable Medical Clinics
Direct, whole-person care for homeless, uninsured, and underserved patients – meeting people where they are, at no cost to them.
02
AI for Underserved Populations
A healthcare platform that brings coordinated, intelligent care to settings that have never had it – extending the reach of every clinician and volunteer.
03
A Patient-Owned Universal Medical Record
A single, portable health record that follows the patient – not the provider – so care is never lost between visits, shelters, or systems.
04
Research & Physician Education
Translational research and clinical training that turn frontline experience into better care, and prepare the next generation of physicians to serve.
Our Mission
To improve quality of life and health outcomes through:
Community outreach and education

Neurodegenerative Disease Programs
One of the greatest healthcare challenges of our generation.
Neurodegenerative disorders demand both scientific urgency and human compassion. Renewed Recovery supports initiatives focused on early awareness, education, and community support.
Alzheimer's Disease
- Early detection awareness
- Caregiver education
- Cognitive health promotion
- Community support programs
Dementia & Memory Disorders
- Educational resources
- Family support services
- Cognitive wellness programs
- Risk-factor reduction strategies
Parkinson's & Movement Disorders
- Community outreach
- Patient education
- Wellness initiatives
- Research support
Mild Cognitive Impairment
- Early intervention education
- Cognitive health optimization
- Lifestyle modification programs
Brain Aging & Cognitive Resilience
- Healthy brain aging
- Memory preservation
- Cognitive performance
- Quality of life
Addiction & Recovery
- Substance use disorder
- Post-acute withdrawal syndrome
- Neurobiological recovery support
Addiction Neuroscience & Recovery
Recovery involves both physical and neurologic healing.
One of the Foundation’s unique areas of focus is the relationship between addiction, neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and cognitive decline.
Research increasingly demonstrates that substance use disorders can contribute to long-term neurologic injury and cognitive impairment. Our goal is to help individuals understand that healing is whole-person.
- Addiction recovery support
- Neuroinflammation awareness
- Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome awareness
- Community education initiatives
- Brain health education
- Alcohol-related cognitive disorders
- Cognitive recovery after addiction
- Recovery-focused wellness programs

Serving Underserved Communities
Expanding access to care, education & hope.
For patients with no insurance and no fixed address, the emergency room becomes primary care. Our charitable clinics close that gap – delivering dignified, coordinated, evidence-based treatment to homeless and uninsured patients, at no cost to them.
A core mission of Renewed Recovery is expanding access to education, support services, and innovative health resources for underserved populations. Special emphasis is placed on:
Homeless populations
Individuals in addiction recovery
Veterans
Seniors
Caregivers
Economically disadvantaged communities
Through partnerships with organizations including the New Orleans Mission and other community organizations, we seek to improve health outcomes and quality of life for vulnerable populations.
