Documenting Hope

What Documenting Hope does

Documenting Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2009 by Beth Lambert (originally as Epidemic Answers) that targets families seeking root-cause, whole-child interventions for pediatric chronic health and developmental conditions including autism, ADHD, PANS/PANDAS, autoimmune conditions, and sensory processing disorder. The organization operates a research-driven content and community platform centered on its proprietary Total Load Theory and bioindividual care frameworks, anchored by two in-house research programs (the FLIGHT proof-of-principle recovery study and the CHIRP parent-survey study) conducted in collaboration with the University of Maryland School of Medicine Center for Integrative Medicine. Its product portfolio consists of digital video learning series priced at $39, full conference packages at $199, regenerative healing presentations at $99, a Health Coach Training Program at $949, and the subscription-based Healing Together membership community; the organization also maintains a directory of 845+ vetted practitioners globally as a referral channel. Revenue is generated through one-time digital product sales, recurring membership subscriptions, tax-deductible donations, and event-driven demand generation via annual conferences (2023, 2024, 2025, 2026), with a community-led, direct-to-consumer go-to-market motion executed across content marketing, organic social, webinars, and email.
