Creating a New Path for Mental Health and Substance Use Care for Young Adults
Phoenix Group Foundation is reimagining what mental wellness looks like for young adults and their families. Through community connection, education, and access to trusted practitioners, we’re building systems that empower—not stigmatize.

Upcoming Virtual Event
Join Us for The Power of Us: Conversations That Heal
This virtual event brings together practitioners, young adults, and families to talk openly about mental health, belonging, and finding real support. Together, we build connection—the antidote to isolation.
Phoenix Group Foundation is creating a new standard of care for young adults and families impacted by mental health and substance use challenges.
Through education, connection, and access to compassionate professionals, we’re closing the gaps in a system that has too often left people behind.
We’re Here to Change Our Systems of Care—And How Our Young Adults Are Treated
Phoenix Group Foundation was built on a belief that young adults deserve access to care that works—and families deserve clarity, not confusion, when seeking support. We’re not just responding to the crisis in mental health and substance use care; we’re reimagining what compassionate, coordinated systems can look like.
We do this through three interconnected initiatives.
Together, these initiatives power our mission to build a future where access to care is not a privilege, it’s a promise.

Your Support Helps Strengthen Communities
Support our mission by contributing a donation.
Building Hope, One Community at a Time.
We envision a world where everyone—especially our most vulnerable—has access to compassionate, evidence-based behavioral health care. Through the construction of innovative treatment centers across the nation, we plan to provide individualized support for those facing mental health and substance use challenges.
Unlike government-funded programs, Phoenix Group Foundation relies solely on private donations, allowing us to remain community-focused, flexible, and fully committed to our mission. Your support empowers us to create lasting change, build safer communities, and bring hope to those who need it most.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for young people ages 10–34.
But here’s the truth: awareness, support, and connection save lives.
That’s why we created Hope In Action — a free guide for young adults, parents, and caregivers. Inside, you’ll find:
✨ Common warning signs to look for
✨ How to support yourself and others
✨ A fill-in personal safety plan
✨ Crisis resources + everyday wellness tools
This guide isn’t about judgment. It’s about hope, awareness, and reminders that every life matters.
