Annual Report

e must find time

make a difference in our lives.
—John F. Kennedy
Measuring Success
“Alone we can do little;
together we can do so much.”
—Helen Keller
The legendary author and activist’s
words ring true as we reflect on
our history and envision our future.
At Phoenix House, our alumni tell us that
recovery is not measured in major milestones,
but in small moments. These everyday
victories make the difference between a life
of desperation and one of hope:
“The morning when my sister called, not out
of worry or fear but just to chat.”
“The first night it was me, not my wife, who
got up to care for our newborn baby.”
“The day I got a steady job to support my family.”
Nearly half a century ago, Phoenix House was born out of a conviction
that people struggling with substance abuse could change the course
of their lives—step by step, moment by moment, one day at a time. In
an era when many considered addiction impossible to overcome, our
founder Mitchell S. Rosenthal, M.D. brought his expertise to a group of
heroin addicts fighting to stay clean in a Manhattan brownstone. His
guidance helped them find lasting sobriety.
From its origins as a pioneering addiction treatment program in
New York City, Phoenix House now spans more than 130 programs
across the country, delivering comprehensive behavioral health care
and supportive services.
Our growth and evolution can be attributed to the dedication of our staff,
the increasing effectiveness of our evidence-based care, the generosity
of our Boards of Directors and supporters, the commitment of our
government partners, and most importantly, the strength and resolve of
those we serve.
We are proud of our progress—and we look to the future with confidence
in our ability not simply to survive, but to thrive. Whatever challenges
lie ahead, our clients will remain at the heart of everything we do. It is
their resilience and indomitable spirit that have inspired us for nearly
five decades—and will energize us for years to come.
When the small triumphs of recovery add up, the difference is profound.
As we move ahead, we do so with the steadfast belief we have held since
our earliest days—that each person who walks through our doors deserves
compassion, dignity, and a fighting chance to become whole again.

2014: A Time of Transformation
Since the passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and mental health
parity legislation, more underserved Americans—those for whom we
have long advocated—now have access to life-saving care. Notably, the
ACA also includes provisions to ensure that more individuals involved
in the justice system acquire health insurance and find treatment upon
their release. Related criminal justice reforms support treatment as an
alternative to incarceration, so that fewer Americans with the disease of
addiction wind up in jail or prison.
While there is more work to be done to realize the promise of these
reforms, key changes have been implemented. 2014 saw the expansion
of Medicaid in selected states and the opening of state-based health
insurance marketplaces for individuals and small businesses.
As of
May 2014,
more than
8 million
Americans
had enrolled
in the newly
created health
insurance
marketplaces.
These changes allow us to advance our historic mission to serve men,
women, and teens from all walks of life. However, health care reform
also means that we must adapt to tremendous shifts in the landscape.
The health care system continues to move away from a fee-for-service
model toward managed care, creating greater demand for accountability,
cost savings, outcomes data, and evaluation. As more provisions of the
Affordable Care Act take effect, we must continue to enhance our
services while facing a possible reduction in government funding.
Embracing the “can do” attitude that has defined us from the start, we
have viewed these challenges not as roadblocks, but as opportunities.
Our accomplishments over the past year reveal the strides we have made
to better serve our clients and help them transform their lives. In
FY2014, there were 19,250 treatment admissions at our programs across
the country, a 20 percent increase over the past three years. Over the
past five years, we have also seen a 31 percent reduction in clients who
left before completing treatment.
Key to our success is our willingness to work together for a common
purpose: to do whatever it takes to help those struggling with addiction
manage, treat, and control this disease.

Making a Difference in So Many Ways
SPECIALIZED CLINICAL PROGRAMS & SERVICES
Phoenix House’s time-tested residential and outpatient care now
includes a variety of specialized clinical programs and services, all
with the same goal: to make a difference in the lives of the men,
women, and teens we serve.
Opioid Addiction Treatment
W
hat counts in life is
not the mere fact that we have lived.
It is what difference we have made to
the lives of others that will determine
the significance of the life we lead.
—Nelson Mandela
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calls addiction to
opioids—a class of drugs that includes prescription painkillers and
heroin—the worst drug crisis in United States history. We are addressing
this epidemic head-on. In Rhode Island, for example, we are training
staff and clients to store and administer the opioid overdose antidote
naloxone. At our ambulatory withdrawal and stabilization program in
Long Island City and our new short-stay inpatient program in Lake
Ronkonkoma, New York, we continue to see positive results from the
use of buprenorphine, a frontline opioid addiction treatment. We are
also developing a new outpatient center that can provide long-term
treatment for people with opioid addiction using a chronic disease
management model.
Mental Health Services
Addiction and mental health conditions are often interconnected. Many
people with mental illness attempt to dull their symptoms with drugs
and alcohol—and conversely, many people who abuse drugs
experience the onset of mental health problems. In fact, about 30
percent of our treatment admissions have a co-occurring substance
use and mental health disorder. Understanding the complex
relationship between these diagnoses, nearly all of our programs
provide psychiatric consultations, evaluations, and medications as
needed. We also offer programs geared specifically for individuals
struggling with both drugs and mental health disorders.
Medical Services
As the Affordable Care Act brings addiction treatment into the realm
of mainstream medicine, we are more dedicated than ever to
addressing the full spectrum of health care needs. At a number of
locations, we provide primary care, psychiatric services, and
medication-assisted treatment. In New York, many of our programs
have state-licensed medical and dental clinics on-site, staffed by
physicians, dentists, registered nurses, and other specialists. In other
parts of the country, our doctors and nurses treat clients and partner
with community clinics and medical centers as needed. With the
support of the nonprofit Vision to Learn, teens at our Phoenix House
Academy in Los Angeles receive yearly vision check-ups and eyewear
prescriptions, which boost not only their wellness, but also their
performance in school.
1
BEYOND CLINICAL CARE: SUPPORTIVE PROGRAMS & SERVICES
Throughout our history, our focus has remained the same:
How do we help our clients, their families, and their communities
eliminate the debilitating effects of drug addiction from their
lives? We recognize that the answer to that question lies in
providing not only high-quality clinical care, but also a host of
other vital services.
Housing Services
When a mom gets the help she needs, she alters
not only the course of her life, but her entire
family’s—for the better. At our Demeter House in
Virginia, our Dorchester Center in Massachusetts,
and our Mother and Child Program in New York,
pregnant women and mothers with young
children find safe, nurturing environments where
treatment is combined with parenting curriculum.
In FY2014, we expanded these services with
our new Women’s and Children’s Program in
Orange County, which responds to the unique
needs of women struggling with substance abuse
and mental health issues.
Military Services
War takes a toll on current and former military
personnel—and too often, drugs become a way to
numb physical and emotional wounds. Phoenix
House proudly serves our nation’s bravest—and
their families—with programs specially designed
to address servicemen and women’s unique needs,
including treatment for post-traumatic stress
disorder (PTSD) and readjustment challenges.
Youth Services
Since 1983, our Phoenix House Academy model,
recognized by the Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s National Registry
of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices, has
enabled thousands of teens to recover from
addiction while attending on-site accredited high
schools. This year, we have continued our legacy
of innovation. At our Hill A. Feinberg Academy
in Dallas, we created and implemented a new
adolescent treatment framework called Investigate
2
Strengths, Consider Possible Selves, Acquire
Necessary Skills, Nurture Hope (I CAN). This
model incorporates positive psychology based
on the wiring of the teen brain.
Prevention and
Recognizing that the best time to address
substance abuse is before it starts, we are
increasing our prevention and early intervention
efforts. In California, for example, we
launched our Behavioral Health Intervention
and Support Services (BHIS). This new effort
includes family programming designed to
enhance communication between parents and
children; small group sessions for elementary
and secondary school students; and classroom
prevention lessons that promote a positive,
healthy lifestyle. The program now serves 27
Orange County public schools and has already
touched more than 14,000 students’ lives.
7.7 million
adults aged
18 and older
struggle with
co-occurring
substance
abuse and
mental health
disorders.
We are fully committed to helping those we serve find stable,
secure living environments as they transition back to the community.
This year, the Rhode Island Council on Alcoholism and Other Drug
Dependence (RICAODD), a Phoenix House program, opened two
new recovery houses, one for men and one exclusively for veterans.
In Virginia, the Department of Health and Human Services recently
recognized our Independence House for successfully obtaining housing
for 94 percent of clients upon program completion. These newly
sober adults now have permanent homes and jobs, factors that vastly
improve the likelihood of sustained recovery.
Vocational Services
Recognizing that stable employment significantly increases clients’
chances for lasting recovery, Phoenix House helps adults in treatment
gain practical vocational skills. At our Career Academy in Brooklyn,
for example, clients have the opportunity to chart new paths in
culinary arts, building maintenance and repair, and more. Thanks to
a generous donation from pop superstar Beyoncé and her mother
and business partner Miss Tina Knowles, we also offer a seven-month
cosmetology training program in our state-of-the-art Beyoncé
Cosmetology Center.
Educational Services
“I help turn ‘I can’t’ into ‘I can.’” These were the words of a literacy
specialist at one of our programs, where clients uncover academic
strengths they never knew they had. Partnering with local school
districts, we offer small classrooms and personalized instruction, so
clients are prepared to graduate, work toward their GED, or return
to their home schools.
Phoenix Rising Music Program
As many of our clients have discovered, music provides an outlet
to express in song what may be difficult to express in a counseling
session. With support from singer-songwriter Kara DioGuardi, our
music studios allow teens and adults to record original tunes—and
to heal through the process.
3
Performing and Visual Arts
An estimated
1.3 million
adolescents
aged 12 to
17 have a
substance use
disorder.
“It’s not me. It’s the character.” This is the refrain we hear from clients
who find that by assuming a different identity, they are able to give
voice to feelings they’ve suppressed. In addition to acting and
scriptwriting, adults and teens also enjoy other opportunities for
creative expression, ranging from mural painting to Aztec dance.
Recreation and Fitness Programs
Physical fitness is a vital part of lasting recovery—and our programs
across the country help clients discover the value of daily exercise.
With the support of staff coaches and recreation therapists, clients set
personal fitness goals, participate in sports teams, and enjoy outdoor
activities, from fishing to hiking to martial arts.
Yoga and Meditation
At Phoenix House, we believe wellness and recovery go hand in hand.
In our yoga and meditation workshops, clients stretch their bodies and
their minds as well—learning to recognize their bodies’ signals, harness
a calm response, and find inner peace within a raucous outer world.
Horticultural Therapy
For Phoenix House clients, gardening is more than just a pastime.
It’s a therapeutic tool that helps them reduce stress, develop a sense
of pride, hone their problem-solving skills, and connect to their
natural surroundings. In a number of our programs, adolescents and
adults nurture a variety of plants and flowers. Clients also grow their
own vegetables, taking this educational, team-building activity from
seed to dinner plate.
Animal Therapy
Our clients know the enormous joy and comfort an animal can provide.
At our Academy in San Diego, for example, adolescents bond with dogs
and other pets that live on the expansive, mountainous grounds. Teens
who participate in equine therapy conquer their fears by learning to
trust their animals—and themselves.
4
FAMILY
The Difference Between Going It Alone and
Going With Confidence Is Family.
At Phoenix House, we know that addiction is a family disease.
Parents, grandparents, children, spouses, and anyone a client
considers “family” often need guidance to make sense of substance
abuse and support loved ones in recovery. They may frequently
benefit from care themselves. Under the direction of our Center on
Addiction and the Family (COAF), we offer family-informed
treatment in various ways:
Educating and Supporting Families
During visiting days at our residential treatment centers, family
members can connect with their loved ones and gain a better sense of
how treatment looks and feels. At our Dublin Center in New Hampshire,
Family Days include recreational activities, meals, and support groups.
Our Phoenix House Counseling Center in Virginia is among the programs
that host a regular Concerned Persons Group, where families can learn
about supporting relatives in recovery and caring for themselves in
the process. Other programs, like our Judge John C. Creuzot Judicial
Treatment Center in Texas, offer family education programs that cover
topics ranging from relapse prevention to conflict management.

At our adolescent programs, parent education workshops and support
groups for family members are an important part of treatment. For
example, the Strengthening Families Program at Phoenix House
Academy in Los Angeles gives parents and adolescents the opportunity
to enhance and practice their communication and problem-solving skills.
Young people are also the focus of our revitalized Parents as Treatment
Partners (PATP) groups in New York, which aim to increase adult
involvement by educating caregivers and setting the stage for regular,
meaningful contact.
Helping Parents in Treatment
Building Bridges, a parenting group offered at a number of our programs,
helps clients with children of any age discover what it means to be a
parent in recovery, explore how they were parented, and become the
parents they want to be. This program, and our Phoenix Fathers group for
dads, will reach many more parents in 2015.
Enhancing Family Care through Training
Phoenix House’s Center on Addiction and the Family (COAF), which
develops and supports family services for our programs, released a
series of videos to train staff on working with family members and
clients when family issues surface in treatment. This video series will be
launched nationally by the beginning of 2015. A second video series for
adolescents in treatment is also planned for the coming year.

ADVOCATES
Our Point of View
We are more committed than ever before to informing and shaping
public discourse around issues that matter most to our field. In 2014,
we have expanded our advocacy efforts—and the results have been
extraordinary. From testifying before the Senate to achieving a record
of more than 1.4 billion media impressions, we’ve been at the table
for critical conversations about addiction, treatment, and drug policy.
About 40,000

As we accelerate our policy efforts, we’re proud to have joined forces
with PROP, an advocacy group dedicated to curbing our nation’s opioid
addiction epidemic. Co-founded by our Chief Medical Officer Andrew
Kolodny, M.D., this grassroots organization has become a major force
in the fight to bring America’s opioid scourge under control. Now part
of Phoenix House, PROP will continue to advocate for the thousands of
patients and families who have been affected by this public health crisis.
We are energized by PROP’s work and we look forward to helping the
movement advance.

The Issues We’re Passionate About...
and the Phoenix House Experts Who Champion Them
Understanding
the Teen Brain
“Adolescents are vulnerable—and not just to pot. That’s how
they are programmed. They make rash and risky choices
because their brains aren’t fully developed. The part of the
brain that censors dumb or dangerous behavior is last to come
on line (generally not before the mid-20s). When you link
adolescent pleasure-seeking and risk-taking to marijuana’s
impairment of perception and judgment, it isn’t surprising that
a 2004 study of seriously injured drivers in Maryland found
half the teens tested positive for pot. Marijuana impairs
learning, judgment, and memory—no small matters during the
adolescent years—and it can do lasting harm to the brain.
Most disturbing is a recent discovery that marijuana can make
lasting changes in ‘working memory,’ a brain structure critical
to reasoning and a source of ready recall for basic information
like telephone numbers and solutions to everyday problems.”

Curbing Opioid
Addiction:
A Multi-Pronged
Approach
PHOENIX HOUSE FOUNDER
The Wall Street Journal
Leading with
the Facts on
Legalization
“A robust, objective analysis of outcomes in Colorado and
Washington is the only way to determine the best policy on
this issue, but for now it is too early to make a sound judgment.
What we do know is that marijuana is harmful, particularly for
the still-developing adolescent brain. As we’ve seen with
alcohol and tobacco, imposing a minimum age will probably
not be enough to prevent a spike in teenage use and addiction.
Considering this likely consequence, not to mention the
economic burden of regulating the drug and treating new
problematic users, we may find that the societal costs of
legalization outweigh the benefits. However, if we make
pronouncements before we see the research, we’re jumping
the gun. Let’s let the facts speak for themselves.”
Elizabeth Urquhart
SENIOR DIRECTOR, PHOENIX HOUSE SAN DIEGO
Early Intervention:
Stopping the
School-to-Prison
Pipeline
“It’s going to take a village to change the status quo. We must
improve care for kids before they turn to a life of violence. The
attitudes they learn now will likely last a lifetime, and it’s our
job to listen, understand, and help. We must train teachers to
better reach their students and intervene early. Throwing kids
out of school, calling the police—it’s simply not working. Why?
Because we don’t always know a student’s history of trauma or
abuse. We don’t know what baggage that child is carrying
around to make him or her act this way. So instead of passing
the problem along to the jails, we need to get these kids into
treatment so they can learn the root cause of their behaviors
and begin to heal.”
Howard P. Meitiner
PHOENIX HOUSE PRESIDENT AND CEO

“If we hope to prevent new cases of opioid addiction, the
medical community must begin prescribing more cautiously, so
that we don’t directly addict our patients and so that we don’t
indirectly cause addiction in non-medical users by stocking
medicine chests, high school classrooms, and college dorm
rooms with a hazard. This man-made public health catastrophe
has left millions of Americans with a chronic life-threatening
disease. However, with treatment, recovery is possible. I have
been treating this disease for more than ten years. I have had a
chance to see my patients get married, hold jobs, have babies,
and lead fully productive lives in recovery. We must do both—
prevention and treatment. If we only curtail overprescribing
without also expanding access to treatment, overdose deaths
will remain at historically high levels and heroin will continue
flooding into neighborhoods across the country.”
Andrew Kolodny, M.D.
PHOENIX HOUSE CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER
Testimony, Senate Caucus on International Narcotics Control
Howard P. Meitiner
PHOENIX HOUSE PRESIDENT AND CEO
The New York Times
“More than 80 percent of college students drink alcohol, and
about half of them binge drink; almost two million of them
meet the diagnostic criteria for substance abuse and
dependence. The consequences of all this alcohol consumption
are disturbing: Close to 2,000 college students between the ages
of 18 and 24 die each year from alcohol-related injuries, and
alcohol is a factor in two out of three student suicides. Binge
drinking, in particular, leads to increased drunk driving,
violence, and unsafe sexual activity. We, as parents, government
officials, educators, and a society, need to be educating our
young people about the risks inherent in college-age drinking
and working to prevent it—not celebrating it.”
Making Good on
Parity’s Promise
“Although health care reform requires equal insurance coverage
for substance abuse treatment, we have yet to see real parity
in addiction and mental health treatment. When someone asks
for treatment, there should be no closed door and very few
impediments—and inpatient care should be accessible to anyone
who needs it. Although some insurers may object to the higher
cost of inpatient treatment, we can’t consider dollars without
calculating the even higher cost of refusing someone the
treatment they really need. Meeting all of someone’s needs—
medical and mental health—in one facility saves costs now.
Preventing a potential relapse and an emergency room stay
by providing proper care saves costs later, too.”

True Stories of Recovery

who was addicted to drugs. By 12, Hayley was, too. They were
reunited by then, but not for long—Hayley’s mom died in a car
accident when Hayley was 14 and both of them were high. A
court ordered her into treatment, and her grandmother sent her
to Phoenix House. It took Hayley four months to abide by the
rules, but she reached a turning point when a staff member threw
her a quinceañera to mark her 15th birthday. “It made me feel
like someone cared. I decided to give treatment my all,” Hayley
explains. Today, she’s married, trained as a medical assistant, and
has been sober for nine years.

ALEX Growing up, Alex was in Cub Scouts, involved in
sports, and thought life was good. That changed when he was 13
and friends asked if he wanted to try marijuana. “I heard it wasn’t
as bad as school anti-drug programs made it out to be,” Alex
recalls. He started smoking pot regularly and then moved on to
painkillers and heroin. When he found himself stealing his
family’s Christmas money to pay for drugs, “I realized I was at
my knees to my addiction,” he says. He tried to leave his longterm treatment fate to the roll of a penny but ultimately took fate
into his own hands and decided to go to Phoenix House. There he
learned to deal with triggers that made him want to use. “It made
me unhappy—but it showed me how to deal with being unhappy,”
Alex explains. He has now graduated high school and hopes to
become a drug and alcohol counselor.

ERIK started drinking when he was 13. “I’d had freedom
since I was a kid and could basically do whatever I wanted,”
he recalls. He considered himself a social drinker, until he
got arrested and ended up in a group home—then juvenile
hall. But a judge believed in Erik and sent him to the
Phoenix House Academy. There Erik got the structure he
needed and saw “how life really should be, doing day-today things sober,” he explains. “It made me feel really good
about myself, seeing how much I could accomplish.” He’s
in college and hopes to become a psychologist specializing
in child trauma. “Recovery is not easy,” he says, “but it’s
not impossible.”

SARAH attended prestigious private schools as a child and
had what she calls an “addictive personality”: hugely driven
with a deep desire to be “cool.” She began smoking marijuana
at age 12, but her drug use escalated during her parents’ divorce.
At 17 a hospital referred her to Phoenix House. She entered
treatment with no intention of staying sober. “What kept me
off drugs initially were the drug tests and house arrest,” Sarah
admits—but then she saw a friend overdose and committed herself
to recovery. She credits Phoenix House with teaching her how
to harness her energy for good, not self-destruction, and deal
with her emotions. Sober nearly 18 years, she now has her own
business and a strong marriage and hopes to have a family of
her own one day.

SUZY When Suzy went to college to study acting, she
became involved with marijuana, alcohol, and an abusive
boyfriend who introduced her to cocaine. Eventually, she
started selling drugs, too, and became addicted to heroin.
But it wasn’t until she robbed her family for drug money
that she realized she was an addict. She struggled for a
decade, but at age 36, treatment finally stuck. She and her
Phoenix House counselor were at last able to work on
emotions she had kept inside. She joined an acting program
for Phoenix House clients, and “all those old feelings of being
creative came back to me,” Suzy recalls. After first working
as an intern, she now holds a full-time staff position with
the Stella Adler Outreach Program. “I entered treatment
spiritually bankrupt. Now I have faith and hope,” says Suzy.

to sniff. “As soon as I took it I was hooked,” Kevin recalls.
He wanted to stop but it was 1970, and treatment wasn’t the
norm. He eventually found help after an arrest and court order.
During his time at Phoenix House, he was featured on a poster
that said, “Take a chance on a kid.” That’s when Kevin realized:
“Phoenix House took a chance on me.” He used that chance to
make a better life for himself. He relapsed once, but “I already
had that taste of what a good, clean life was like from my time
in Phoenix House,” he explains. Today Kevin has a lucrative
career, two children, and 25 years of sobriety.

Phoenix House Texas welcomed more than
400 guests on April 30, 2014, to the Dallas
Hilton Anatole for the annual Triumph
for Teens Luncheon. Former First Lady
Laura W. Bush was the featured keynote
speaker. Co-chaired by Kathy Crow,
member of the Texas Board of Directors, and
Hill A. Feinberg, the Board’s chairman, the
luncheon featured an overwhelming show of
support from notable Texas philanthropists.
WFAA Channel 8 news anchor John McCaa
served as Master of Ceremonies, guiding luncheon
attendees through the afternoon’s programming
and highlighting the challenges faced by Texas
youth, as well as the importance of family and
community. The event raised more than
$545,000 to support Phoenix House treatment
services throughout the state.
For many years, Derek Jeter’s Turn 2 Foundation
has been a loyal supporter of Phoenix House
Florida. Turn 2 has been instrumental in
expanding the reach and enhancing the
clinical excellence of the Derek Jeter Center
at Phoenix House Florida, a facility dedicated
to helping adolescent boys and girls in the
Tampa community learn positive lifestyles and
recover from substance abuse. This year, the
Turn 2 Foundation generously donated $100,000
to the Derek Jeter Center, further establishing it
as one of the premier care providers for youth
with substance use issues in Hillsborough County.
Thanks to this remarkable generosity, the Center
has been able to introduce new therapeutic
approaches that appear to be working: In 2013,
95 percent of youth at the Center successfully
completed treatment.
The Champlin Foundations have long been
stalwart supporters of Phoenix House
New England, and in 2014 The Champlin
Foundations generously donated $52,000 to
Phoenix House Exeter Center, Rhode Island’s
flagship facility. This generous grant allowed
the Center to make much-needed upgrades,
greatly improving the quality of life for those
in our care. This grant is the latest in The
Champlin Foundations’ 30 years of support for
Phoenix House New England.

NEW DIRECTIONS
At its inaugural Triumph Gala in May 2014, Phoenix House MidAtlantic honored Suzie and Bill Buck and the men and women of
Cardinal Bank. Hosted at The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner, the gala was
a success with lead support provided by Cardinal Bank and the Bucks,
as well as Hitt Contracting, Patrick A. Correnty, M.D., and Virginia
Hospital Center. The event served as a platform to announce the newly
established Young Adult Treatment Fund. In memory of John B. Buck,
the Fund will provide financial means for treatment of substance use
disorders for young people, ages 18-30, who are clinically in need of
services and have exhausted all other funding sources.
Phoenix House Mid-Atlantic also received a $20,000 Community
Impact Grant from United Way of the National Capital Area. This
generous grant will fund an educational consultant to help our young
adult clients get back on track for successful employment and
educational pursuits, and prepare a stable plan as they reestablish
productive lives after treatment.
Phoenix House California received a generous $250,000 grant from
the W. M. Keck Foundation. The grant was directed to Phoenix House
Venice, a facility for men with co-occurring substance abuse and
mental health disorders, and who have been involved with the justice
system—including those recently released from incarceration.
In June, American Express made a generous grant of $150,000 to
Phoenix House Foundation for the Phoenix House Leadership
Academy. The Academy will provide 40-50 emerging leaders with the
tools and training they need to prepare for senior leadership roles at
Phoenix House. This new initiative will help us retain a top-flight staff
and ensure that we can provide the best possible care for our clients.

Philanthropic Support for Phoenix House
Phoenix House has grown and evolved tremendously since our
inception, but our central goal remains constant: protecting and
supporting individuals, families, and communities affected by
addiction. To fulfill this promise, Phoenix House is committed to
enriching our programming and expanding our reach.
Phoenix House
Guardian Society
Gifts of $1,000,000
or More
Our Guardian Society partners
have given more than $1 million
during their lifetimes. They have
made it possible for us to guide
thousands of men, women, and
teens from disrupted to
productive lives, and their impact
lasts long after a client’s last day
of treatment. On behalf of all
those who have benefited from
their generosity, we extend our
deepest thanks.

In Support
Like many organizations, Phoenix House is largely dependent on
government funding to provide for society’s most vulnerable and
underserved. While this support covers many basic operational costs,
it alone does not enable us to meet new challenges and remain a
leader in our field. We rely on foundation grants, corporate support,
and contributions from friends to maintain the standards of quality
that have been the hallmark of Phoenix House for nearly five decades.
Thank you to all our friends who helped Phoenix House make a
difference in the fiscal year July 1, 2013-June 30, 2014.
