Phoenix offers comprehensive treatment in a dynamic, experiential setting for teens ages 13-17 who are struggling with substance abuse/use as well co-occurring behavioral and mental health issues.

Phoenix Outdoor believes that a therapeutic outdoor environment, far removed from the stresses, pressures and distractions of daily life, is the ideal place for students to establish a foundation for long-term substance abuse recovery and lifelong success.
