We are so excited to introduce Parker, our new Volunteer Coordinator in Tampa, Florida! Parker is new to Florida and loves to spend as much time outside as possible. She loves going to the beach and lounging around the pool, playing pickleball, and has picked up needlepoint. "I am excited to be working at The Phoenix as a Volunteer Coordinator because, having been in recovery for over three years, I have developed a deep passion for helping others on their recovery journey. Recovery has taught me that the opposite of addiction is connection, which is so essential, and you can have fun in recovery! I am thrilled to work with volunteers who drive our mission, foster essential connections within our community, and bring joy to those in need."

"When I got sober, something shifted inside of me. I became more intentional with what I put in my body. I relearned to love cooking for myself and for others...I’m not afraid of dying anymore, but I’m not afraid of living either." #riserecoverlive https://lnkd.in/gmbYA6sq

We are so thrilled to introduce Janet, a new Execute Assistant at The Phoenix! She is happiest when hanging out with flora and fauna, hiking the beautiful California parks, and playing with or caring for the horses, goats, pig, chickens, dogs, rabbits and cats who live on a small recreational farm with her. On why she is excited to work at The Phoenix: "In this world it is extremely challenging to be successful doing good. The Phoenix is doing so much good with such great impact that I couldn’t help being awed by both the mission and its effect. Substance use disorder and mental health issues are really hitting a critical red alert point in our nation and around the world. The Phoenix is providing the “village” we as a human race desperately need in order to survive and thrive together. This bottom-up solution of support and healing through community, human dignity and individual resilience/strength, is right on point for our times and I am proud and honored to be playing a small role in helping to expand The Phoenix movement."
