Phoenix House Orange County Inc

Operating in Orange County since 1979, Phoenix House defines its mission in the following words: “We are passionate about healing individuals, families and communities challenged by substance use disorders and related mental health conditions.” Phoenix House supports its mission through a focus on the distinct mental, physical, and social needs of every person; innovation of best-in-class and evidence-based prevention, treatment, and recovery programs; and the promotion of greater understanding of addiction. Our treatment and recovery services are individualized, culturally competent, trauma-informed, and based on effective evidence-based approaches. We work to reduce disparities in access to treatment, and we offer help to the most impoverished and vulnerable members of our communities. Our prevention services (Behavioral Health Interventions and Support Services) offer positive youth development classes and support to over 22,000 students in 34  Orange County schools.
