“We envision a world where individuals in recovery from a substance use disorder are not sidelined because of their past, but welcomed, embraced and included as valuable, lovable people with limitless futures.”
— Jean Krisle, Founder, 10,000 Beds, Inc.
The mission of 10,000 Beds is to connect individuals seeking help for addiction, to vetted treatment programs and to be a resource to families affected by the disease of addiction.
Through our 10,000 Beds “One Bed. One Life.” scholarship program, we partner with extraordinary treatment programs throughout the United States that donate at least one addiction treatment scholarship annually for qualifying 10,000 Beds scholarship applicants who are without resources and actively seeking help for addiction.
Through our 2017-2020 #ontheROAD4 recovery outreach program, we were able to reach individuals, families and companies throughout the country to raise awareness, end stigma and provide hope.
Our new outreach program, #ontheAIR4recovery is just one result of the new normal of COVID-19: a podcast involving individuals, families, and programs to provide information and interaction in a safe, positive and open online forum.
Connection is critical in this new reality of voluntary and forced isolation. Our goal is to encourage and facilitate positive communication and connection to those battling or recovering from addiction.
From 2017 – 2020, 10,000 Beds criss-crossed the country with our #ontheROAD4recovery program. With more than 30,000 miles driven for recovery, it was our privilege to meet with thousands of people – families, community leaders, educators, students, treatment programs, individuals battling addiction, elected officials, fellow travelers, corporate leaders, and more. We have loved this outreach effort and the people we have met along the way. Unfortunately, COVID-19 has forced us to change our approach to outreach, but we are thrilled with our newest program!
In January 2020, our first visits and community presentations of the year started in Arizona. Again, COVID-19 brought these visits to a screeching halt.
And so, because we are dedicated to helping the many who are battling addiction, we are going virtual! Our newest program, our #ontheAIR4recovery podcast, will feature our founder, Jean Krisle, as host. We are looking for guests, so please reach out to let us know how we can best spotlight you and share your story!
Our community & corporate outreach program (CCOP) was created to provide opportunities to meet with company leaders, human resource specialists, and employee groups to raise awareness and end the stigma too often associated with a person or family battling an addiction and also associated with individuals in recovery. We are dedicated to making the workplace a safe place for all.

We are not a 24/7 emergency hotline or treatment placement service.
If you are in an emergency situation, dial 911 immediately.
We are sorry, but online applications are CLOSED for 2020 due to our current waiting list and the increased difficulty of obtaining scholarships due to COVID-19 restrictions and regulations. Once applications open again, they will be open on Monday’s only. Please remember that once your application is submitted, there is a process for approval. We are not a 24/7 overnight placement service or emergency hotline. Once approved, you will check in every Monday to stay active on our list, until we can find a scholarship for you.
We are grateful for our 2020 Corporate Sponsor – Beechtree Diagnostics. We appreciate this forward thinking company which was founded on a simple premise – “It’s more than a test”. The dedicated team at Beechtree Diagnostics knows there is an individual on the other side of any test, as well as many individuals providing professional medical care to ensure optimum outcomes. This translates into an organization that constantly improves and challenges the status quo. Beechtree Diagnostics is also the Presenting Sponsor of our upcoming Gratitude Gala!
