KEY LARGO, FL— December 17, 2025
A
t Kinder in the Keys, healing doesn’t stop at therapy sessions or group workshops—it extends to every part of our residents’ daily lives, including something as essential as food. With that in mind, we are excited to announce a fresh approach to nutrition at Kinder: a new suite of flexible meal plan options, designed in response to client feedback and rooted in personalized wellness.
Over the years, many of our residents have expressed an interest in greater autonomy and choice when it comes to meals and snacks. Others value the simplicity and comfort of having everything taken care of.
We’ve listened carefully—and taken action.
Beginning this month, residents will be able to choose from three thoughtfully designed meal plans:
- All-Inclusive Meal Plan
- Limited Meal Plan
- Create Your Own Plan
Each offering varies in levels of structure and flexibility. Whether you’re someone who takes comfort in consistency or thrives with more control over your dietary choices, there’s now an option that supports your nourishment, your lifestyle, and your journey toward healing.
The All-Inclusive Meal Plan is perfect for individuals who want to fully focus on their recovery. It includes daily chef-prepared meals, snacks, and beverages—all carefully curated by our culinary team at no additional cost. Meals are nutritious and balanced, with accommodations for common dietary restrictions such as vegetarian, vegan, kosher, and celiac needs recommended by a doctor.
For those who want just the right amount of customization without the need for full meal prep, the Limited Meal Plan offers daily meals from our chef, while providing residents the opportunity to select their own snacks and beverages during a weekly grocery store visit. This option allows for more personalized selections, including gluten-free, high-protein, or specialty items, while still providing the structure and support of prepared meals.
And for residents who prefer full independence when it comes to food, the Create Your Own Plan offers complete culinary freedom. Residents shop for their chosen groceries weekly and prepare all meals themselves, with allotted time and access to communal kitchen tools. This plan is best suited for those who are confident in the kitchen and want full control over what they eat.
While each plan varies in its level of customization and cost, the common thread is clear: caring for the whole person. Nutrition is a foundational part of our wellness model, and these new options reflect our belief that recovery is both personal and practical.
Grocery store visits are still available once a week for those on Limited or Create Your Own plans, and outside food delivery remains limited to designated days. Regardless of the plan chosen, every resident at Kinder will continue to experience the same nurturing environment, clinical support, and commitment to wellness that set us apart.
These meal plans are more than a menu change—they’re a reflection of who we are: responsive, intentional, and always evolving in support of those we serve. To learn more about our new meal plans, check our Meal Plan page!
